Cities on Flame with Rock and Roll Lyrics
[Verse 1: Albert Bouchard]
My heart is black and my lips are cold
Cities on flame with rock and roll
Three thousand guitars, they seem to cry
My ears will melt and then my eyes
[Chorus: Albert Bouchard]
Let the girl, let that girl, rock and roll
Cities on flame now with rock and roll
[Verse 2: Albert Bouchard]
Gardens of Nocturne, forbidden delight
Reins of steel and it's alright
Cities on flame with rock and roll
Marshall will buoy, but Fender control
[Chorus: Albert Bouchard]
So let the girl, let that girl, rock and roll
Cities on flame now with rock and roll
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3: Albert Bouchard]

Cities on flame with rock and roll
Three thousand guitars, they seem to cry
My ears will melt and then my eyes

So let the girl, let that girl, rock and roll
Cities on flame now with rock and roll
