Rock n roll was started by four guys from across the pond, there was Jerry, Johnny, Carl and a hep cat named Elvis
and later on the Big O. rock n roll was born. Some say it would not last, some say it,s just a fad, a phase people
were going through.but how wrong they were.
Rock n roll is here to stay. Telecaster Fender and Gretsch as well, all played a rockin beat to which we could move our feet.
Teddy boys with their crapes and drapes quiffs and da,s looking so tidy and smart. The Rockabillys as well in their jeans
tee shirts and leather jackets, also with quiffs side burns and Da,s.
One guitar,one drum and one double base and you have a rock a billy band, music that lives on for ever through out
this fine land as you will discover its still very much in demand, The music of Gene, Eddy and Elvis is far from dead.
its stronger than ever its got to be said
Blue sued shoes, love me tender all played so beautiful on a gretsch or fender a sound so sweet and fine that will blow your
mind so my friend to finally say Rock N Roll is not dead hooray.

In the midst of this silent song,
Is a lost note-a lost church...
Worst than being abandoned,
It's foundation has been crawled by isolation...
The melodious rhymes it made,
Has been replaced by a never ending moaning of the ocean...
The sands crapes into it veins,
Going sway..
It was a place filled with saved souls..
A place of inspiration,
Tunes into a place of isolation..
Left and abandoned by all,
The place of worship has turned into "abbadon".
