Lyrics The Rubettes

The Rubettes

Rock Is Dead

Annie told Nat, she told Pat

They all got together on the launderette

She said oh oh

We gotta take it slow

I know they'll never get nothing to beat that rock and roll

Other music just leaves me cold 'cos I got it down in my soul

Rock is dead but it won't lie down

Shakes its head ant it sticks around

They said that rock would fade away

But I knew rock was here to stay

And I told friends who told the town

News like that soon gets around

Rock and roll is dead but it won't lie down

Mama said stop, Dad blew his top

When we all got together at the local hop

I said oh oh

You really just don't know

'Cos there'll never be nothing to beat that rock and roll

Other music just leaves me cold 'cos I got it down in my soul

Rock is dead but it won't lie down

Shakes its head ant it sticks around

They said that rock would fade away

But I knew rock was here to stay

And I told friends who told the town

News like that soon gets around

Rock and roll is dead but it won't lie down
