Heart Of Rock And Roll Lyrics

Heart Of Rock And Roll

THE HEART OF ROCK AND ROLL
Huey Lewis and the News

New York, New York
is everything they say
And no place that I'd rather be
Where else can you
do a half a million things
And all at a quarter to three
When they play
their music, ooh that modern music
The like it with a lot of style
But
it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really drives them
wild

CHORUS
They say the heart of rock and roll is still
beating
And from what I've seen I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be
barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll is still
beating

L.A., Hollywood and the Sunset Strip is something everyone
should see
Neon lights and the pretty, pretty girls all dressed so
scantily
When they play their music, that hard rock music
They like it
with a lot of flash
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That
really kicks 'em in the...

CHORUS

D.C., San Antone and the
Liberty town, Boston and Baton Rouge
Tulsa, Austin, Oklahoma City, Seattle,
San Francisco, too
Everywhere there's music, real live music, bands with a
million styles
But it's still that same old rock and roll music that really
drives 'em wild

CHORUS

In Cleveland
Detroit...heart of rock
and roll
