Songtext zu 'I'm a Rock 'N' Roller' von Foghat

Well I tried to like country
But it gave me the blues don't you know
And I tried to like jazz
But it wore out my shoes to the soul
Well I ain't no criminal, ain't no saint
Ain't complaining and don't get faint
Got a job that I can't refuse
And I won't be late

I'm a rock 'n roller, yeah I'm a rock 'n roller
Gonna rock 'n roll you all night long

Well I put on a ballad and pretend that it's hot but it's not
And the harder I try the new music just don't hit the spot
Well I ain't no criminal, ain't no saint
Ain't no whiner, don't get faint
Excuse me if I sound rude
I got a job to do

I'm a rock 'n roller, yeah I'm a rock 'n roller
I'm a rock 'n roller, yeah I'm a rock 'n roller
Gonna rock 'n roll you all night long

Well I can't take classical cause I ain't old what a shame
And when rap makes me feel like a gangster, I ain't to blame
Well I ain't no criminal, ain't no saint
Ain't complaining, don't get faint
Got to keep rocking I can't stop
Or I'll blow my top

I'm a rock 'n roller, I'm a rock 'n roller
Gonna rock 'n roll you all night long
