Daughtry Long Live Rock And Roll is a track from the rock band's "Baptized" album. "Long Live Rock & Roll" is a mid-tempo rock song with a folk edge. Chris Daughtry name checks stars like Elton John or The Beatles in the lyrics. The chorus is very up-lift
Well I was born
The year that disco died
And U2 was in high school
Thank the lord that they survived
Got my first taste, on a Seger '45
And since that kiss
I rocked out all day, and partied every night
We still argue about who's better
Elton John or Billy Joel
We still wonder if Kurt really wrote the song she sang in Hole
No we'll never stop believing
That's the journey of our lives
So won't you help me pour some sugar on these memories tonight?
Sing it
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sing it
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll
Summer of '96, I got my first guitar
I played it till fingers said, "you're gonna be a star"
Grounge was everything, at least, it was to me
A Marshall in my Chevy sprint
Just winding down a dream
We still argue about who's better
Motley Crew or G & R
We still can't believe Van Helen, turned into Van Hagar
Now the record shops are gone' for good
And no one seems to care
But me and you, and all our friends
Keep living on that prayer
Sing it
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sing it
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll
Went to be in Cleaveland
Woke up in Tenessee
No matter where I'll roll tonight
I'm chasing history
We still argue about who's better
The Beatles or the Stones
They're forever 27
Jimmy Janice, Brian and Jones
And we stand here in their memory
'Cause their songs, they still survive
So throw your lighters up
And darling sing with me tonight
Come on
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sing it
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll
Long live rock
Long live roll
Long live big guitars and music for the soul
Sing it
Don't give up, don't grow old
Long live crazy nights and records made of gold
Long live rock and roll
