Rock'n roll idol so they say People came from miles to hear him play Someone took the rock'n roll away Now he's idle everyday Mr. Rock'n roll It's taken a toll on you Well, you're starting to fade And you're losing control Of what you do Mr. Rock'n roll They're turning away at the door All the people have gone And you won't hear the shouting no more Making music sing and rise Look so good and sense so fine But it was hard for him to see From his world of make believe Mr. Rock'n roll It's taken a toll on you Well, you're starting to fade And you're losing control of what you do Mr. Rock'n roll They're turning away at the door All the people have gone And you won't hear the shouting no more And as the lights fade You thought ya had it made Now you're just a memory Now you're just a memory
