Tom had a job in a town outside the city Was working very hard Life was lookin` very pretty Nothing going wrong with the rockabilly Song That the radio was playing
But than came around the Rock ` n` Roll beginning Tom left the town and got into the singin` Nothing was the same since he read a book Saying "Wheels are freedom" nowadays
Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone
Tom had a band and made a good "a" livin` Toured all the land His dreams had been fulfillin` Was bringing in some cash But spent it all on hash That`s when his life began to bend
Times were looking bad He was lying` in a clinic He lost all he had The world was looking cynic His innocence was gone But it didn`t take him long Now he`s singin` on the street the song of his defeat Oh yeah
Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone
Beans, Beans The musical fruit The more you eat The more you toot The more you toot The better you feel So let`s have beans For every meal
Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone Rock `n` roll stole my soul Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone
