Rock 'N' Roll Is Here to Stay
Sha Na Na · Other Songs - Sha Na Na
Rock 'n roll is here to stay, it will never die
It was meant to be that way, though I don't know why
I don't care what people say, rock 'n roll is here to stay
(We don't care what people say, rock 'n roll is here to stay)
Rock 'n roll will always be our ticket to the end
It will go down in history, just you wait, my friend
Rock 'n roll will always be, it'll go down in history
(Rock 'n roll will always be, it'll go down in history)
Everybody rock, everybody rock
Everybody rock, everybody rock
Come on, everybody rock
Everybody rock and roll, everybody rock and roll
Everybody rock and roll, everybody rock and roll
I said come on
Everybody rock and roll
Rock 'n roll will always be our ticket to the end
It will go down in history, just you wait, my friend
Rock 'n roll will always be, it'll go down in history
If you don't like rock 'n roll, think what you've been missin'
But if you like to bop and stroll, come on down and listen
Let's all start to have a ball, everybody rock 'n roll
Ro-o-ock! Oh, baby
Ro-o-ock! Oh, baby
Ro-o-ock! Oh, baby
Ro-o-ock! Oh, baby
Rock!
