Rock and Roll Rebels Lyrics

And she walks along by the river
Where you can be alone with your dreams
And she screams at the world, "I'm done getting burned
When do I get my chance for a win"

"Oh, and where is my lover when I really need him
To give me peace for an angry heart"
Ah, but then he pulls up beside her with the radio blastin'
And they race down the highway for a brand new start

And the rock & roll rebels are ridin' tonight
Crusin' till daylight again
Yes, they're rockin' this town for the time of their lives
Wishin' this night'd never end

And he locks the door to his secret
That holds the key to his hopes and fears
For tonight he will try to leave his troubles behind
For it has been just one of those years

And he picks up the gang at the usual places
To hear the soundtrack of their lives
Oh yeah, they're rolllin' downtown to hear that rock & roll music
Well, it may not save the world but it helps them survive

And the rock & roll rebels are ridin' tonight
Crusin' till daylight again
Yes, they're rockin' this town for the time of their lives
Wishin' this night'd never end
