I remember as a child I used to hear Music that they played lord with a feel’ Some call it folk, some call it soul People let me tell you it was rock and roll
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul Every day when I got home I turned on my radio
Listening to the music that my idols made I knew every single record the dj’s played A honky tonk a hound dog, a johnny b. goode Chain gang, love is strange, knock on wood
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll
I thought it was a fad, thought that it would pass But the younger generation knew it would last Time’s gone by, the beat goes on But every time I hear it lord it takes me home
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul Every day when I got home I turned on my radio
Mother played recordings of beethoven’s fifth Mozart’s sonatas down the classical liszt My papa loved to listen to his country songs While I was in the back room rockin’ on
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll
I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
