Subject: RE: Life Is A Rock
From: GUEST

Tried a google search, came up with this.....

B.B. Bumble and the Stingers,
Mott the Hoople, Ray Charles Singers,
Lonnie Mack and Twangin' Eddy,
Here's my ring we're going steady.
Take it easy, take me higher,
Liar liar, house on fire,
Locomotion, Poco passion,
Deeper purple, Satisfaction,
Baby baby, gotta gotta,
Gimme gimme, gettin' hotter.
Sammy's cookin', Leslie's Gore,
Ritchie Valens, end of story,
Maha Vishnu, Fujiyama,
Kama Sutra, Rama Lama,
Richard Perry, Spectre Barry,
Righteous, Archies, Nilsson Harry,
Shimmy shimmy, loco boppin',
Fats is back and finger poppin'.

Life is a rock but the radio rolled me:
Gotta turn it up louder,
So my DJ told me;
Life is a rock but the radio rolled me:
At the end of my rainbow
Lies a golden oldie.

FM, AM, hits are clickin',
While the clock is tockin', tickin'.
Friends and Romans, salutations,
Brenda and the Tabulations,
Carly Simon, I behold her,
Rolling Stony centerfolder,
Johnny Cash and Johnny Rivers,
Can't stop now, I've got the shivers.
Mungo Jerry, Peter Peter,
Paul and Paul and Mary Mary,
Dr John, the nightly tripper,
Doris Day and Jack the Ripper.
Got to go sir, got to swelter,
Leon Russell, gimme shelter,
Miracles in smoky places,
Slide guitarists, Fender basses,
Mushroom omelette, Bonnie Bramlett,
Wilson Pickett, stomp and kick it.

Life is a rock but the radio
Life is a rock but the radio
(Whoo!)
(Doo doo doo, doo doo doo)
Arthur Janoff, primal screamin',
Hawkins J. and Dale and Ronnie,
Peter Phil and Mack and Tray
And Denver John and Osmond Donny,
J.J. Cale and ZZ Top,
And L.L. Bean and Dee Dee Dinah,
David Bowie, Steely Dan,
And sing me proud, oh C.C. Rider.
Edgar Winter, Joanie Summers,
Ides of March and Johnny Thunder,
Eric Clapton, pedal wah-wah,
Stephen Foster, doo-dah doo-dah,
Good Vibrations, Help Me Rhonda,
Surfer Girl and Little Honda,
Tighter tighter, honey honey,
Sugar sugar, yummy yummy,
CBS and Warner Brothers,
RCA and all the others.

Life is a rock but the radio rolled me (Life is a rock):
Gotta turn it up louder (Life is a rock),
So my DJ told me (Life is a),
Woh-woh-woh woh-woh.
Life is a rock but the radio rolled me (Life is a rock),
At the end of my rainbow,
Lies a golden oldie.

(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
[Spoken] Listen, they're playing our song...
(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Gonna take you higher.
(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Gonna take you higher...

Rock it, sock it, Alan Freed me,
Murray Kaufman tried to lead me,
Fish are swimmin', Boston Monkey,
Make it bad and play it funky.
B.B. Bumble and the Stingers,
Mott the Hoople, Ray Charles Singers,
Lonnie Mack and Twangin' Eddy,
Here's my ring we're going steady.
Take it easy, take me higher...
(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Gonna take you higher.
(Ooh-ooh-ooh ooh ooh-ooh-ooh)
Gonna take you higher...
