Rock and Roll Cliche ‘Hey there mister,” said the young bopper, “won’t you teach me a rock and roll song?” “One of those funky ones my grandma used to rock to in ‘71.” I said, “It’s old fashioned, a rock and roll cliche.” He just told me to shut my mouth and play, just play. So I played him a rocker my brother taught me back in 1973, and his feet started tapping, his hands started strumming, jammin’ along with me It wasn’t old fashioned, no rock and roll cliche when I reached over and cranked my amp and played, just played Now I know there’s something in me that’s still pumping as long as there are notes to play. Forget about the trends, just get up with your friends, and make some music today. I know it’s old fashioned, a rock cliche, but step aside you youngsters and watch me play, just play. thanks to Jay for vocals and guitar solo
