WHAT DO YOU WANT? (ROCK 'N' ROLL!)
(Ian Smith - Tuck Trull)
BONNEVILLE (NERVOUS, Recorded 1982)

It's been a long time since I seen sixteen
Been a long time since I had a dream
Now I know where I gotta go
'Cause I lost my soul to the rock 'n' roll

[Chorus]
We all want (rock 'n' roll)
What do you want? (rock 'n' roll)
We all want (rock 'n' roll)
That's what we want rock (rock 'n' roll)

All the guitars rockin' into the bar
Drums beatin' out like a souped up car
Bassman slappin' out that line
With the singer shouting, one more time!

[Chorus]

Band's got up, a-full and at steam
Poundin' out that Teddy Boy dream
DA's and drape coats and bootlace ties
Drainpipe jeans and the rebel cries

[Chorus]

Been a long time since I seen sixteen
It's been a long time since I had a dream
Now I know where I gotta go
'Cause I lost my soul to the rock 'n' roll

[Chorus]
