Song lyrics

[1st verse:]
She said I like just lying on the bed
Beneath the ceiling with her head upon my pillow.
There's nothing as I'd rather do.
And I said I'd rather do it on the couch
Or in the kitchen where about
You seem so down child
Like nothing could destroy your world.

[Chorus:]
But I never ever wanted to...
You never ever let me to...
I would but you must wait ‘til it gets dark.
So what is it that you want me to...?
I can't make it even good for you.
So play me some from 1954
Before rock ‘n’ roll.
Yeah, before rock ‘n’ roll.
Before rock ‘n’ roll!

[2nd verse:]
Well later she came with flowers in her arms.
And we can do it in the car my brother owns it,
The driver’s seat is made for us.
And I said I'd rather grab a bite to eat,
There is a diner down the street.
Let's take it easy!
And join this lovely harmony.

[Chorus:]
But I never ever wanted to...
You never ever let me to...
I would but you must wait ‘til it gets dark.
So what is it that you want me to...?
I can't make it into good for you.
So play me some from 1954
Before rock ‘n’ roll.
Yeah, before rock ‘n’ roll.
Before rock ‘n’ rooooll,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

Before rock ‘n’ roll! (6x)
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
Before rock ‘n’ roll,
Long before rock ‘n’ roll,
Before rock ‘n’ roll! (3x)
Yeah, yeah, yeah!
