Old Time Rock n' Roll

Lyrics & Music: George H. Jackson & Thomas E. Jones III (1978)

Performed:  Bob Segar

 

Just take those old records off the shelf

I'll sit and listen to 'em by m'self

Today's music ain't got the same soul

I like that old time rock and roll

 

Don't try to take me to a Disco

You'll never even get me out on the floor

In 10 minutes I'll be late for the door

I like that old time rock and roll

 

(Chorus)

Still like that old time rock and roll

The kinda music just soothes the soul

I reminisce about the days of old

With that old time rock and roll

 

Won't go to hear 'em play a Tango

I'd rather hear some blues or funky old soul

There's only one sure way to get me to go

Start playin' old time rock and roll

 

Call me a relic call me what'cha will

Say I'm old fashioned say I'm over the hill

Today's music ain't got the same soul

I like that old time rock and roll

 

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

(Chorus)

Still like that old time rock and roll
