Well I was born The year that disco died And U2 was in high school Thank the Lord that they survived Got my first taste, on a Seger '45 And since that Kiss I rocked out All day and partied every night
We still argue about who's better Elton John or Billy Joel We still wonder if Kurt really Wrote the song she sang in Hole No we'll never stop believing That's the Journey of our lives So won't you help me Pour Some Sugar On these memories tonight?
Sing it Long live rock Long live roll Long live big guitars and music for the soul Sing it Don't give up, don't grow old Long live crazy nights and records made of gold Long live rock and roll
Summer of '96, I got my first guitar I played it till my fingers said \"You're gonna be a star\" Grunge was everything, at least it was to me A Marshall in my Chevy Sprint Just winding down a dream
We still argue about who's better Motley Crew or G&R We still can't believe Van Halen Turned into Van Hagar Now the record shops are gone for good And no one seems to care But me and you and all our friends Keep Living On That Prayer
Sing it Long live rock Long live roll Long live big guitars and music for the soul Sing it Don't give up, don't grow old Long live crazy nights and records made of gold Long live rock and roll
Went to bed in Cleveland Woke up in Tenessee No matter where I'll roll tonight I'm chasing history
We still argue about who's better The Beatles or The Stones They're forever 27 Jimmy, Janice, Brian Jones And we stand here in their memory 'Cause their songs, they still survive So throw your lighters up And, darling, sing with me tonight
Come on
Long live rock Long live roll Long live big guitars and music for the soul Sing it Don't give up, don't grow old Long live crazy nights and records made of gold Long live rock and roll
Long live rock Long live roll Long live big guitars and music for the soul Sing it Don't give up, don't grow old Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
