I remember as a child I used to hear Music that they played Lord with a feel’ Some call it folk some call it soul People let me tell you it was rock and roll I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul Every day when I got home I turned on my radi-o-o-o-o-o Listening to the music that my idols made I knew every single record the DJ’s played A honky tonk a Hound Dog a Johnny B. Goode Chain Gang Love Is Strange Knock On Wood I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll I thought it was a fad thought that it would pass But the younger generation knew it would last Time’s gone by the beat goes on But every time I hear it Lord it takes me home I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul Every day when I got home I turned on my radio Mother played recordings of Beethoven’s Fifth Mozart’s sonatas down the classical Liszt My papa loved to listen to his country songs While I was in the back room rockin’ on I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll I was raised on rock I got rhythm in my soul
