Keep Playin' That Rock 'n' Roll

Keep Playin' That Rock 'n' Roll - Edgar Winter's White Trash

Don't you know that I was

Sittin' back in Texas

I was playin' those rhythm and blues

And then I got a big offer

For more money than I could refuse

I had my chance to make it

Playin' anythin' I wanted to play

But way back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up

For when you get old

Got to keep playin'

That rock 'n' roll

So I packed up and

I made it up to New York

Where my brother was a great big star

He was doin' funky music yeah

Singin' and playin' guitar

Johnny was makin' the big time

Everything was goin' his way

But way back in my mind

You know I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin'

That rock 'n' roll

Don't you know that

I've been doin' lots of thinkin'

I've been tryin' hard to figure it out

But there's a certain kind of music yeah

Got to make you jump and shout

Now you could call it commercial

If you wanna see it that way

But way back in my mind

You know

I could hear the people say

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for

When you get old

Got to keep playin'

That rock 'n' roll

Oh you got to keep on playin'

You got to keep on playin'

Got to keep on playin'

Got to keep on playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Keep doin' what you been told

Save your money up for when you get old

Got to keep playin' that rock 'n' roll

Rock 'n' roll rock 'n' roll

To satisfy my soul
