Lyrics

(CN.C.)Gun ter glie ben glau ten glo ben.

All right,

It’s bet ter to burn out

Gon na start a fire.

Gon na start a fire.

(E5)Come on!

(E5)Rise up, gath er ’round, rock this place to the ground, burn it up, let’s go for broke, watch the night go up in smoke.

Oh, Rock let’s on go, let’s strike (rock a on), light, gon na drive me cra zi er.

No ser e nade, no it fire bri gade, just a py ro ma ni a.

Come on.

(What do you want?)

(A5)What do you want?

(I want rock and roll.)

(Long live rock and roll.) Oh, Rock let’s on go, let’s strike (rock a on), light, gon na blow like dy na mite.

No I don’t care if it takes all night, gon na set this town a live.

Come on.

(What do you want?)

(I want rock and roll.)

(Long live rock and roll.)

Rock of ag es, rock of ag es, still roll ing, keep a roll ing.

Rock of ag es, rock of ag es, still roll ing, rock and roll ing.

We got the pow er, got the glo ry.

Just say you need it, and if you need it say yeah.

I’m (E5)burn ing, burn ing.

I’ve got the fe ver.

I know for sure

Gim me, gim me, gim me, gim me, gim me one more for the road, yeah.

(What do you want?)

(A5)What do you want?

(I want rock and roll.)

(Long live rock and roll.)

We’re gon na burn this damn place down,

down to the ground.
