"Rock N Roll Heart" lyrics

"Rock N Roll Heart"

Working class kid in a dead end town
Wants to get out before it brings him down
Turns on the radio and hears a sound
Now he knows that he's been found

Blue collar boy in a no win town
Has to get out before they take him down
Playing that guitar is all he needs
Follow that dream wherever it leads

Outside of the outsiders
Everything changed when he heard that song

That's when you know you've got a rock n roll heart
Yeah yeah yeah a rock n roll heart
You don't have to be that smart
You don't have to be a work of art
As long as you've got a rock n roll heart
It can't be broken or torn apart
Yeah you've got a rock n roll heart

Rock n roll reached down into my house
Reached right down and pulled me out
Talked to me and I knew then
What I was gonna be all about

Outside of the outsiders
Everything changed when I heard that song

That's when you know you've got a rock n roll heart
Yeah yeah yeah a rock n roll heart
You don't have to be that smart
You don't have to be a work of art
As long as you've got a rock n roll heart
It can't be broken or torn apart, yeah
You've got a rock roll heart

That's when you know you've got a rock n roll heart
Yeah yeah yeah a rock n roll heart
You don't have to be that smart
You don't have to be a work of art
That's when you know you've got a rock n roll heart
Yeah yeah yeah a rock n roll heart
As long as you've got a rock n roll heart
It can't be broken or torn apart, yeah
You've got a rock roll heart
