Rock ’n’ Roll Songtext
von Lou Reed

Now, Jenny said, when she was just five years old
You know there′s nothin' happenin′ at all
Every time she put on the radio
There's nothin' goin′ down at all, no not at all

Then one fine mornin′, she puts on a New York station
She couldn't believe what she heard at all, not at all
She started dancin′ to that fine, fine music
Her life was saved by rock and roll
Yeah, rock and roll

Despite all the amputation
You could dance to a rock and roll station
And it was alright
It was alright
Now, Jenny said, when she was just five years old
You know my parent will be the death of us all
Two TV sets with two Cadillac cars
Well, it ain't gon′ help us at all, not at all


Then one ne fine mornin', she puts on a New York station
She couldn′t believe what she heard at all, no not at all
She started dancin' to that fine, fine music
Her life was saved by rock and roll
And rock and roll

Yeah, despite all the amputation
You could dance to a rock and roll station
And it was alright, it was alright
Hey now, here she comes
Jenny said, when she was just five years old
You know there's nothin′ happening at all
Every time I put on the radio
There′s nothin' goin′ down at all

Then one fine mornin', she heard a New York station
She couldn′t believe what she heard at all
She started dancing to that fine, fine music
Her life was saved by rock and roll, yeah, rock and roll

Despite all the amputation
You could dance to a rock and roll station
You can clap

And it was alright
And it was alright
And it was alright
And it was alright


And it's alright (alright)
Alright (alright)
It′s alright (alright)
It's alright (alright)

I said it's baby (baby)
Said it′s baby (baby)
Baby (baby)
Baby (baby)

I said it′s alright
It's alright
This is alright
It′s alright, alright
Thank you for being so beautiful and good night from us
Thank you, goodnight
Thank you very much
