You take some music, music
Sweet flowin' music
A little movin' and groovin'
And rock and roll will stand
You take heart beats, drum beats
Finger poppin' and stompin' feet
A little dance that look so neat
You see why it will stand
But some folks don't understand it
And that's why they don't demand it
They're out tryin' to ruin
Forgive them for they know not what they're doin', well
Don't misname it
In fact, you might as well claim it
It swept this whole wide land
Rock and roll forever will stand
Alright
Hear those guitars blowin'
Sharp as lightnin'
Hear those drums beatin'
Louder than thunder

But some folks don't understand it
And that's why they don't demand it
They're out tryin' to ruin
But forgive them, for they know not what they're doin'
But don't you misname it
In fact, you might as well claim it
It swept this whole wide land
Sinking deep in the heart of man
Come on, boy, take my hand (rock and roll will stand)
Come on, boy, join our clan (rock and roll will stand)
Come on, boy, be a man (rock and roll will stand)
'Cause rock and roll will stand
Are you ready, let's do it all over again (rock and roll will stand)
Oh, let's do it all over again (rock and roll will stand)
It's swept this whole wide land
Sinking deep in the heart of man
Come on, boy, take my hand (aye)
Come on, boy, join our clan (aye)
Come on, boy, be a man (aye)
'Cause rock and roll will stand (aye)
