raised on rock

Singer:helen reddy

i remember as a child i used to hear

music that they played lord with a feel

some call it folk

some call it soul

people let me tell you it was rock and roll

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul

every day when i got home i turned on my radio

listening to the music that my idols made

i knew every single record the dj's played

a honky tonk a hound dog

a johnny b. goode

chain gang

love is strange

knock on wood

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul

i was born to love the beat i was made for rock and roll

i thought it was a fad

thought that it would pass

but the younger generation knew it would last

time's gone by

the beat goes on

but every time i hear it lord it takes me home

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul

every day when i got home i turned on my radio

mother played recordings of beethoven's fifth

mozart's sonatas down the classical liszt

my papa loved to listen to his country songs

while i was in the back room rockin' on

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul

i was born to love the beat i was made for rock and roll

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul

i was born to love the beat i was made for rock and roll

i was raised on rock

i got rhythm in my soul
