Rock ’n Roll Is the Answer Lyrics

Seven o’clock and I’m feelin' rotten
Gonna pull myself together here
'Cause twelve o’clock you know I wanna rock
I wanna get a belly full of beer
Fighting nightly baby it's a bore, everything is going wrong
Saturday night it's gonna be alright
We'll go barhoppin' til the break of dawn, yeah!
Baby, baby
We gonna have a ball
Ooh, come on baby
We gonna have it...
We gonna have it all!

Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh, oh, oh
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh yeah!

I got soused now in the doghouse to make everythin' turn out alright
My my baby, she’s mad at me but I ain't going to let it ruin my time
The neighbors are complaining, I’m going insane
There goes the doorbell, the telephone
But it's Saturday night it's gonna be alright
We'll go barhoppin' til the break of dawn
Yeah, baby, baby
We gonna have a ball
Ooh, come on baby
We gonna have it...
We gonna have it all!
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh, oh, oh
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh yeah!

My parents are always lecturing me
I tell them that it just don’t matter
Take away my MTV, but you can’t break the spirit
But you can’t break the spirit
Can’t break the spirit, baby!

No, you can’t break the spirit
Can’t break the spirit, baby!

Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh-oh-oh
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh yeah!
Rock’n roll...
It is the answer!
Rock’n roll is the answer, yeah yeah!

Oh yeah!
Rock’n roll...
It is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, yeah, yeah!
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Rock’n roll
It is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh yeah!
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh yeah!
Rock’n roll is the answer
Rock’n roll is the answer, oh-oh-oh
Rock’n roll...
It is the answer!
Rock’n roll is the answer, yeah yeah!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
