About

In the liner notes to the 2003 compilation Stand Up and Shout: The Anthology, Ronnie James Dio had this to say:

Ritchie came to me and said, ‘Can you write a song called “Long Live Rock ’n’ Roll”?’ And I said, ‘Great title–sure!’ He gave me the riff, and I wrote it. It was easy and, amazingly, came...

Long Live Rock ‘n’ Roll Lyrics

[Intro]
Alright, rock 'n' roll, yeah

[Verse 1]
At the end of a dream
If you know where I mean
When the mist just starts to clear
In a similar way
At the end of today
I could feel the sound of writing on the wall

[Pre-Chorus]
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do
Like a spiral on the wine
I can hear it screamin' in my mind

[Chorus]
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
Let it live

[Verse 2]
In a different time
When the words didn't rhyme
You could never quite be sure
Then on with the change
It was simple but strange
And you knew the feeling seemed to say it all

[Pre-Chorus]
It cries for you
It's the least that you can do
Like a spiral on the wine
I can hear it screamin' in my mind

[Chorus]
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
I'm losing control

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
Look here

[Verse 3]
If you suddenly see
What has happened to me
You should spread the word around
And tell everyone here
That it's perfectly clear
They can sail above it all on what they've found

[Pre-Chorus]
It cries for you
It's the best that you can do
Like a sound that's everywhere
I can hear it screaming through the air

[Chorus]
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
Let it live, let it live, let it live

[Outro]
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll, yeah
Long live rock and roll
Banners held high with a curse and a cry, and it's
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
You feeling down, spread it around, make a sound it's got to be
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
Live, live, live, live
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
Let it live, let it live, let it live, let it live
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock 'n' roll
Long live rock and roll
