Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I had trouble, but I found my star

I found myself an electric guitar

Well I was some kind of messed up kid

Now look what you did, look what you did

You made me, yeah

You made me, yeah

[Verse 2]

Well I'm not preaching or making a case

I'm not tryin' make the world a better place

Well I ain't evil, but I ain't good

I did what I could, I did what I could

To save me, yeah

To save me, yeah

[Verse 3]

I love rock 'n' roll

I love what I'm doing

I need rock 'n' roll

Gets me where I'm going

[Verse 4]

Don't need money, if you've got soul

And it don't matter if you're young or you're old

Well I don't worry what the people say

They say what they say, I go my own way

But, that's me, yeah

It's just me, yeah

[Verse 5]

I love rock 'n' roll

I love what I'm doing

I love rock 'n' roll

Gets me where I'm going

[Verse 6]

Don't need anyone

Don't need anything

Don't need anybody

I need rock 'n' roll
