Lyrics Shakin' Stevens

Shakin' Stevens

Rock 'n' Roll Singer

Well once upon a time it was a sinner crime

To be a rock’n’roll singer.

You were a long time user, a music abuser

If you we’re an all in all singer.

You we’re the thug with the bug drinkin’out the jug

Just a J.D man

Just a country boy, a music star

The current high caller.

But everybody’s a rock’n’roll singer today

You’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know

A rock’n’roll singer today.

(solo)

Yeah Manfred Mann has a rock’n’roll band

John Mayall can really wail

And little Elton John is really gone

Well superstars all classic rock

Tryin’ very hard to shock

Be the first head on your block

They write songs all double pie

They all livin’ a lie

S word on a purple sky

But everybody’s a rock’n’roll singer today

You’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know

A rock’n’roll singer today

I said you’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know

A rock’n’roll singer today
