Keep Playin' That Rock & Roll Lyrics

Don't you know that I was sitting' back in Texas
I was playin' only rhythm'n'blues
And then I got a big offer for more money than I could refuse
I had my chance to make it playin' anything I wanted to play
But playin' back in my mind, you know I could hear the people say
Keep playin' that Rock'n' Roll, keep doin' what you've been told
Save your money up for when you get old
Got to keep playikn' that Rock'n'Roll

So I packed up and I made it up to New York
Where my brother was a great big star
We were doin' funky music (yeah-o)
Singin' and playin' guitar
Johnny was makin' the big time, everything was goin' his way
But playin' back in my mind, you know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that Rock'n' Roll, keep doin' what you've been told
Save your money up for when you get old
Got to keep playikn' that Rock'n'Roll
Don't you know that I've been doin' lots of thinkin'
I have been tryin' hard to figure it out
But there's certain kind of music oooh
Got to make you jump and shout
Oooh now you can call it commercial if you wanna see it that way
But playin' back in my mind you know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that Rock'n' Roll, keep doin' what you've been told
Save your money up for when you get old
Got to keep playikn' that Rock'n'Roll
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Oooh (You got to keep on playin')
Got to keep playin' that Rock'n'Roll
Keep playin' that Rock'n' Roll, keep doin' what you've been told
Save your money up for when you get old
Got to keep playikn' that Rock'n'Roll
Rock'n'Roll, Rock'n'Roll, Rock'n'Roll satisfy my soul
