Lyrics Kris Kristofferson

Kris Kristofferson

Rock and Roll Time

Do I look like a loser, do I stand in your way

A threat to your future, you planned yesterday

Well, I fought for my freedom, some called it a crime

Convicted of running, on rock and roll time

I said rock and roll time, please take me away

To the whiskey and wine, of some better day

And if sometimes it seems, I'm falling behind

Remember I'm running, on rock and roll time

I'm judged in your airports, each time that I fly

I've been locked in your jailhouse, oh but I'm getting by

Just hoping that heaven, is happy and high

And everyone's running, on rock and roll time

I said rock and roll time, please take me away

To the whiskey and wine, of some better day

And if sometimes it seems, I'm falling behind

Remember I'm running, on rock and roll time
