The Road To Rock & Roll Lyrics

[Refrain]
On the road to rock and roll
There's a lot of wreckage in the ravine
Some you recognize
Used to hang out on the scene
On the road to rock and roll
We'll be in the delta by and by
And if you don't believe in good and evil
You can tell the devil why
On the road to rock and roll
Come on, everybody drift away
On the road to rock and roll
Where I learned to play

[Chorus]
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
What I learned to play

[Refrain]
On the road to rock and roll
Everybody carries a good luck charm
Said to spook the highway wind
Blowing off old Parchman farm
On the road to rock and roll
They'll try to hook you by the eye
There's a mirror in your soul
You should turn it to the sky
On the road to rock and roll
The lonely sing a soulful song
Leave a little light in the wilderness
For somebody to come upon
On the road to rock and roll
With everybody deep in their dreams
And the snow is falling on the city
Ask the music what it means
On the road to rock and roll
Come on everybody, drift away
On the road to rock and roll
Where I learned to play

[Chorus]
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Where I learned to play
On the road
