Lyrics Rock 'n' Roll Is Music Now - James Taylor

Rock 'n' Roll Is Music Now

Baby’s been cutting his teeth on Bo Diddley’s, I’m a man, man
Listen to the Wolfman howl
See the white man sailing his ship on the sea
Watch the white man shackle the black man to a tree
To the invader go the fruits of war
He misses home and his boots are sore
He has not got no roots no more
He comes for your gold
Watch out for your soul
Tennis shoes, and rhythm’n’blues are second generation
All across the nation now
Mama knows and Papa, too, that rock’n’roll is music, is music now
To the invader go the fruits of war
He misses home and his boots are sore
He has not got no roots no more
He comes for your gold
Watch out for your soul
'Cause Mama knows and Papa knows that rock’n’roll is music, is music now
I said rock’n’roll is music now
Hark!
Rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music now
Rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music now
Rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music now
Rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music, rock’n’roll is music now
