BORN TO ROCK
(T.D. Lawrence)
JOHN ASHLEY (DOT 45-15775, 1958)
Born to rock, born to rock
My mama called the doctor, and this is what she said
Doctor I do believe that my son has flipped his lid
He comes home every day, he's acting kinda wild
He does the radio on to that rock 'n' roll style
And he was born-born to rock (yeah-yeah rock)
He was born-born to rock (well rock-a)
When I hear that guitar with a flippety-flop
Man I really know I was born-born to rock
The doctor he examined me, and this I heard him say
No need to be alarmed because there's many more this way
It's got me kinda puzzled, although I am a doctor
Ma'am I do believe that your son was born to rock
And he was born-born to rock (well rock-a)
Well, he was born-born to rock (oh-oh well)
When I hear that guitar with a flippety-flop
Man I really know I was born-born to rock
I tried to tell my mama, there was nothing she could do
But let me dig these rhythm and blues
Because I got that feeling down deep in my soul
And all I wanna do is really-really rock 'n' roll
I was born-born to rock (well rock-rock-a)
Well, born-born to rock (uh-uh-uh)
When I hear that guitar with a flippety-flop
Man I really know I was born-born to rock
Man I really know I was born to rock
Rock!
