IT'S ONLY ROCK 'N' ROLL
(Jagger / Richards)
The Rolling Stones


If I could stick a pen in my heart, 
I would spill it all over the stage. 
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya, 
Would you think the boy is strange? 
Ain't he strange? 

If I could win ya, if I could sing ya a love song so divine 
Would it be enough for your cheating heart 
If I broke down and cried? 
If I cried? 

I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it 
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do 
Oh, well, I like it, I like it. 
I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely 

If I could stick a knife in my heart, suicide right on stage, 
Would it be enough for your teenage lust, 
Would it help to ease the pain? 
Ease your brain? 

If I could dig down deep in my heart feelings would flood the page 
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya, 
Would ya think the boy's insane? 
He's insane. 

I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it 
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do 
Oh, well, I like it, I like it. 
I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely 

And do ya think that you're the only girl around? 
I bet you think that you're the only woman in town. 

I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it 
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do 
Oh, well, I like it, I like it.
