My Rock and Roll

It's stone hard and wheels its self relentlessly,
Swinging from teenager to this now grown man.
Music was my foundation from that very first start,
Lead singer, drummer and band leader in year of 1966.

That sun was in my heart and my heart truly in that sun,
Songs leaping from my mouth as if they always belonged.
I've held them there and will never ever let them go,
Prisoners of a loving tempo that will eternally stay.
