Lyrics Rock'n' Roll Stole My Soul - The Kelly Family

Rock'n' Roll Stole My Soul

Tom had a job in a town outside the city
Was working very hard
Life was lookin' very pretty
Nothing going wrong with the rockabilly song
That radio was playing
But then came around
The Rock 'n' Roll beginning
Tom left the town and got into the singin'
Nothing was the same since he read a book
Saying «Wheels are Freedom"nowadays
Rock 'n' Roll stole my soul
Rockin' down the river like a rolling stone
Rock 'n' Roll stole my soul
Rockin' down the river like a rolling stone
Tom had a band and made a good a' livin'
Toured all the land
His dreams had been fulfillin'
Was bringing in some cash
But spent it all on hash
That’s when his life began to bend
Times were looking bad
He was lying' in a clinic
He lost all he had
The world was looking cynic
His innocence was gone
But it didn’t take him long
Now he’s singin' on the street
The song of his defeat
Oh yeah
Rock 'n' Roll stole my soul …
Beans, beans
The musical fruit
The more you eat
The more you toot
The more you toot
The better you feel
So let’s have beans
For every meal
Rock 'n' Roll stole my soul …(4x)
