Daughtry Long Live Rock & Roll song lyrics

Well I was born, the year that disco died

And U2 was in high school, thank the lord that they survived

Got my first taste, on a Seger '45

And since that kiss, I rocked all day, and partied every night

We still argue about who's better, Elton John or Billy Joel

We still wonder if Kurt really wrote the song she sang in Hole

No one ever stop believing, this the journey of our lives

So won't you help me pour some sugar on these memories tonight

Sing it, long live rock, long live roll

Long live big guitars and music for the soul

Sing it, don't give up, don't grow old

Long live crazy nights and records made of gold

Long live rock and roll

Summer of '96, I got my first guitar

I played it 'till fingers said, "you're gonna be a star"

Grunge was everything, at least, it was to me

A Marshall in my Chevy Sprint, just runnin' down a dream

We still argue about who's better, Mötley Crüe or G N' R

We still can't believe Van Halen, turned into Van Hagar

Now the record shops are gone for good and no one seems to care

But me and you, and all our friends, keep living on that prayer

Sing it, long live rock, long live roll

Long live big guitars and music for the soul

Sing it, don't give up, don't grow old

Long live crazy nights and records made of gold

Long live rock and roll

Oh oh ooohhh oh oohh

Oh oh ooohhh oh oohh

Oh oh ooohhh oh oohh

Oh oh ooohhh oh oohh

Went to bed in Cleveland

Woke up in Tennessee

No matter where I'll roam tonight

I'm chasing history

We still argue about who's better, The Beatles or The Stones

They're forever 27, Jimmy, Janis, Brian Jones

And we're stand here in their memory, 'cause their songs, they still survive

So throw your lighters up and darling sing with me tonight

Come on, long live rock, long live roll

Long live big guitars and music for the soul

Sing it, don't give up, don't grow old

Long live crazy nights and records made of gold

Long live rock and roll

Long live rock, long live roll

Long live big guitars and music for the soul

Sing it, don't give up, don't grow old

Long live crazy nights and records made of gold

Long live rock and roll
