Rock 'n' Roll Rooster Lyrics

It's a rare type of breed, nowadays

Though he does seem a little set in his ways

He stares at the chaos and cracks a little smile

You're safe at home, while he's out in the wild

You've got to roll, roll, roll like the rock 'n' roll rooster

He's awakened by the smell of the candles burning out

Left just to wonder what his night was all about

It started with a bottle and ended way too soon

Seven hours left, 'till he's crowing at the moon

You've got to roll, roll, roll like the rock 'n' roll rooster

You've got to roll, you've got to roll

Like the rock 'n' roll rooster

You're knocking on the door, like you're rattling a cage.

No one hears the call, he's already on the stage

The smoke is in air and the ashtray's coming down

You live until the light, when the rooster comes to town

You've got to roll, roll, roll like the rock 'n' roll rooster

You've got to roll, you've got to roll

Like the rock 'n' roll rooster

Roll, yeah roll

Like the rock 'n' roll rooster
