"Neighborhood Rock 'n' Roll Band" lyrics

You're lookin' for your son or daughter
Wanna send them to the corner
'Cause you think they oughta lend a helpin' hand
Well, if you're wonderin' where they're at
It's a one-room basement flat
With the neighborhood rock 'n' roll band

Well, you don't know just what they're doin'
If they're straight or if they're foolin'
On their sense of humor you don't understand
But there is one thing they got down
There's no better sound in town
Than the neighborhood rock 'n' roll band

I said the neighborhood rock 'n' roll band

Well, there is only one attraction
That can get that kind of action
That can turn a weekend dance into a ball
They got drums, they got guitars
They got 14 singin' stars
And the sound can peel the paper right off of the wall

Well, every evenin' as a rule
When they've done their work for school
There is only one amusement they can stand
They will soon be in demand
Number one in all the land
That's the neighborhood rock 'm' roll band

I said the neighborhood rock 'n' roll band

Oh, ride that mellow riff
