Raised on Rock — текст песни (Elvis Presley)

(words & music by mark james)

I remember as a child I used to hear

Music that they played lord with a feel

Some call it folk, some call it soul

People let me tell you it was rock and roll



I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

Every day when I got home I turned on my radio



Listening to the music that my idols made

I knew every single record the djs played

A honky tonk a hound dog, a johnny b. goode

Chain gang, love is strange, knock on wood



I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll



I thought it was a fad, thought that it would pass

But the younger generation knew it would last

Times gone by, the beat goes on

But every time I hear it lord it takes me home



I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

Every day when I got home I turned on my radio



Mother played recordings of beethovens fifth

Mozarts sonatas down the classical liszt

My papa loved to listen to his country songs

While I was in the back room rockin on



I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll



I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul

I was born to love the beat I was made for rock and roll

I was raised on rock, I got rhythm in my soul
