I Love Rock 'n' Roll

Britney Spears · Britney [2001]

Hey, is this thing on?



I saw him dancing there by the record machine

I knew he must have been about 17

The beat was going strong, playin my favorite song

I could tell it wouldn't be long 'till he was with me

(Yeah with me)

I could tell it wouldn't be long 'till he was with me

(Yeah with me)



[chorus:]

Singing I love rock and roll

So put another dime in the jukebox baby

I love rock and roll

So come and take the time and dance with me, ow!



He smiled so I got up and asked for his name

But that don't matter he said 'cause it's all the same

He said can I take you home, where we can be alone

And next we're moving on and he was with me

(Yeah me)

We were movin' on and singing that same old song

(Yeah with me)



[chorus:]

Singing I love rock and roll

So put another dime in the jukebox baby

I love rock and roll

So come and take the time and dance with me, ow!



I love rock and roll, yeah

'Cause it soothes my soul, yeah

I love rock and roll, yeah, hey, yeah



He said can I take home, where we can be alone

And next we're movin' on, and he was with me

(Yeah with me)

And we were movin' on and singing that same old song

(Yeah with me)



[chorus:]

Singing I love rock and roll

So put another dime in the jukebox baby

I love rock and roll

So come and take the time and dance with me



[chorus:]

I love rock and roll (I love rock and roll)

So put another dime in the jukebox baby

I love rock and roll (Oh)

So come and take the time and dance with me (Dance with me)



[chorus:]

I love rock and roll (Rock and roll)

So put another dime in the jukebox baby (I said, dance with me)

I love rock and roll

So come and take the time and dance with me



[chorus:] [2x]

I love rock and roll (Oh, oh, oh)

So put another dime in the jukebox baby

I love rock and roll

So come and take the time and dance with me
