Lyrics:

You feel bad
let me tell you
we all get the blues
sometimes life is a burden
way down in your shoes
when it’s bad, worse, worst
and you think you’re cursed
well, if there’s one thing
for the better
that can turn you loose

It’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul
there’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul

My friend Sam is a chauffeur
Annie goes to school
Jerry works at the office
Sue lies by the pool
but on all week-ends
when I meet my friends
and we’re lookin’ ’round
for the action
we sure play it cool

It’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul
there’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul

Aha, you paint your world
and use all colours
aha, and then you find
it all comes out too bright
you know it’s only a lie
aha, the songs you sing
are too romantic
aha, and when you want the truth
they only spit in your eye
oh yeah, they’re only tellin’ you lies
oh yeah, there’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul

You feel bad
let me tell you
we all get the blues
sometimes life is a burden
way down in your shoes
when it’s bad, worse, worst
and you think you’re cursed
well, if there’s one thing
for the better
that can turn you loose

It’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul
there’s gotta be rock ’n roll
to fill the hole in your soul
