Daniel Johnston - Rock 'n' Roll/EGA Lyrics
There was a day when I was so lonely Time passed me by I was more dead than alive Every minute was like an hour Every day was an eternity I looked for hope but all around me People didn't seem to care CHORUS Oh that rock 'n' roll it saved my soul That rock 'n' roll If I ever thought that I could be happy Dreams like that always faded away And all the girls already had boyfriends I was alone as lonely could be I laid asleep and turned on the radio The music to me was like a dream CHORUS You walk around but you gotta have a reason Something worth getting up in the morning for My heart looked to art and I found the Beatles Oh God I was and am a true disciple Look for the fun you'll start a happy cycle The music will make you come alive CHORUS She was crying just like a baby Didn't wanna fight or more like maybe You ought to get on home at night Keep the battle to the right Seeing the love and adultry And wonderin' who was in the outfield Swear I know the truth And I ain't wearin' nobody's shoes I got some dollar on high look out now It's shining, with a bottle of knuckleheads She's like a drunken rat cat, oh I guess you're coming out the backdoor She did all right it's a battle or fight So I feel all empty now You try to hold a figure eight She said what's the Anti-Christ He said oh what did you do to her It's probably she's been talking to Lucifer Is that really the night Oh, my, uh, uh Alright Hey ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ Eric Wincentsen 267@ef.gc.maricopa.edu Glendale Community College Glendale, Arizona "We want the airwaves!"
