Best Rock N Roll Poems

They broke the news 
to me today

I drumbeat your heartbeat
Sweat beating off body heat
I red dye your blue sky
With thunderbolt electrify

Play until my fingers numb
The fine hairs of your eardrums
And rapture into a new verse
Onto your flawless miss universe

My voice caresses the airwaves
All I want is for you to believe
When you...

Rock and Roll

Feed me things
That keep me awake
I feel alive
What a perfect date
False friends
Within my circle
False visions

Tears welling up
Filling my guitar moon
No more strings to pick
No music to brew
I was born...

a deck of cards 
a roll of dices
monopoly
you go to jail
an other chance
you hopscotch the streets
or should I say the side walk

of chance and scrabble
your brain to understand
the meaning of all 
the avenue looks pretty good
from the stoops with...

It no longer upsets me at all

Either that or I'm losing my hearing

That could be the reason

Whichever the case it's sure a relief

To finally get rid of...

We tuned our guitars, we're ready to play our tune.
On a rock & roll ride.Guitar slide to the moon.
Heavy metal, hard rock & roll.

We got enough time, to reach the moon.
We got enough time, to play our tune.
Heavy metal,...

Carlo Santana's Black Magic Woman,
in the 60's and 70's gave magic to his 
band.. 

Drugs were part of this movement it's
fair to say. Getting high for many, 
while listening to their music, was the
common way

   Peace signs, beads, bell bottoms,
psychedelic shirts, desert boots,...

"Roll on tonight my mates are coming round
  For a few cold beers and some rocking sounds
  Time is drawing near, as I hear a knock at the door
  Blimey! at this time of the night, a vacuum salesmen stands before"

I don't know, but I've been told
A grasshopper plays like a green grass toad! 
Up through the vines, having a real good time
Strumming all night for the love of his life! 

Now Toad he knows, says 'You need soul! '
He jumps right in and away...

I heard drums kick in. Now I hear that music. Wait, What's THAT?!
(Sung to HELLO, I LOVE YOU by the Doors.)

Oh, yeah, she's swaying, so get out of her way.

Oh, yeah, sashaying and she won't be defied.
Oh,...

I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king
My friends all liked the Beatles
But, that was not my thing
I liked to hear the fiddle
To hear the joy burst from the strings
I Grew Up on Country Music
When Rock and Roll was king

I remember me...
