lirik lagu cashman & west - the king of rock 'n roll

[verse 1]
it wasn’t very many years ago
when the only thing you heard on the radio
was the music that the old folks liked
and you thought you should like it too
and then around the summer of ’55
we heard a new sound that made us all come alive
he introduced a music that they used to call rhythm and blues

[chorus]
he said yesterday is gone
roll on music roll on
he gave us something we could call our own
and you felt the rhythm flowin’ down into your sould
he was the king of rock ‘n roll

[verse 2]
and i remember the way it started to grow
how we waited on lines for the paramount shows
i know, i was there, i was part of the original cast
oh how the balcony would rumble and the girls would scream
chuck berry played a song about “maybellene”
it’s a fad, and it’s bad and dad said it would never last
(oh how he was wrong)

[chorus]
he said yesterday is gone
roll on music roll on
he gave us something we could call our own
and you felt the rhythm flowin’ down into your sould
he was the king of rock ‘n roll
[bridge]
and out in california just a little bit south of l.a
“sweet little sixteen” became “surfin’ u.s.a.”

[verse 3]
well it’s funny now how you never hear his name
and many he started have fortune and fame
it’s a shame the way we decided to say goodbye
and i see chuck, rick and elvis, they still roll on
and it is twenty years later
and the king is gone
they never even gave him his piece of american pie

[chorus]
he said yesterday is gone
roll on music roll on
he gave us something we could call our own
and you felt the rhythm flowin’ down into your sould
he was the king of rock ‘n roll
