Lyrics

I was drivin' down the highway Through a desert in the middle of the night When out of nowhere came bright city lights I searched a man, but couldn't find him Still I swore I had this city in sight And it gave me the creeps, something here was right I met this crazy guy by a crashed limousine And asked where the hell I was But when I saw his face, I lost my breath It was Keith Moon and man, it scared me to death He said "Welcome to Rock'n'Roll City! Everybody here is a star. Yeah! Welcome to Rock'n'Roll City!" Everybody drives a flashy car Down in Rock'n'Roll City. Well I drove on, down the main street I felt so shaky, had to park the car Man, I needed a drink, so I searched out a bar Well, inside, I saw these people, They were all dead Rock'n'Roll stars I saw John Lennon was there, leaning 'gainst the bar And there was a band on stage There was Cochrane, Bolan, Joplin and Ed, Buddy Holly and Jim Morrison And there'll be said one thing, before he'll sing "Hey folks, you know I'm still a king" He said: "Welcome to Rock'n'Roll City! Everybody here is a star. Yeah! Welcome to Rock'n'Roll City!" Brian Jones, and Hendrix plays guitar, In Rock'n'Roll City. I woke up next morning, with my head against the wheel I had been dreaming it all, It didn't happen for real But I'm sure those guys are jamming somewhere And man, I wish that I could be there I wanna go to Rock'n'Roll City, Where everybody is a star. Yeah! Go to Rock'n'Roll City An jam here with boys in the bar. I wanna go to Rock'n'Roll City, Get my kicks and play some guitar I wanna go to Rock'n'Roll City, Gonna get myself a flashy car Down in Rock'n'Roll City.
