Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wind tearin' through the backstreet
I hear the rhythm of my heartbeat
Rain blowin' to my face
I'm tired of bein' in the wrong place
[Verse 2]
Blues knockin' on my backdoor
I can't jump from the second floor
Turn up the radio higher and higher
Rock 'n' roll music set my ears on fire
[Verse 3]
When I was stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
When I was stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
[Verse 4]
Laid off work and I can't be free
I need some rock 'n' roll therapy
Put on a 45 and let the  needle ride
Jukebox jumps and I'll be satisfied
[Verse 5]
When I was stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
When I was stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
[Verse 6]
Oh, let me ride on your mystery train
Ride through the night in the pourin' rain
Rock 'n' roll in my soul
Got me losin' control, let it roll
[Verse 7]
Stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
When I was stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
[Verse 8]
Rock 'n' roll in my soul
Got me losin' control, let it roll
Let it roll, let it roll
Let it roll!
[Verse 9]
Stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
Stone blue, rock 'n' roll sure helped me through
[Verse 10]
Stone blue, walkin' on a backstreet
Stone blue, I hear the rhythm of my heartbeat
Stone blue, pick up the beat and start to run
Stone blue, I'll be home before the morning sun
Stone blue, rain blowin' to my face
Stone blue, i'm tired of bein' in the wrong place
[Verse 11]
When I was blue, stone blue, rock 'n' roll helped me through
When I was blue, stone blue, rock 'n' roll helped me through
Turn up my radio, turn it up, yeah
Higher and higher
Turn it up, turn it up, woo
Yeah, higher and higher
[Verse 12]
You gotta help me through, you gotta help me through
You gotta help me through, you gotta help me through
You gotta help me through, you gotta help me through
You gotta help me through, you gotta help me through
When I was stone blue, when I was stone blue
You gotta help me through, help me through
