A high school legend of yesteryear
got high on hope, funk, punk and fear
felt so rude, felt so proud
roots: rock n' roll, turnin' up loud

Never had time to read the news
too busy learnin' the twelve bar blues
didn't want to hang with the straight-edge fools
too busy breakin' all the rules, and...

Rock n' roll saved the day
Rock n' roll paved the way
Rock n' roll is fun to play, hey
Rock n' roll saved the day

Rock n' roll, rock n' roll
Rock n' roll, rock n' roll
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!

Always found time to slip away
to the river's edge with a guitar to play
didn't take long to write the first song
feelin' so free, feelin' so strong, and...

Rock n' roll saved the day
Rock n' roll makes you sway
Rock n' roll is here to stay, hey
Rock n' roll saved the day

Rock n' roll, rock n' roll
Rock n' roll, rock n' roll
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!
Rock n' roll saved the day, yeah hey hey hey, oowa, oowa, oowa, ooh!

Rock n' roll saved the day
Rock n' roll makes you sway
Rock n' roll is here to stay, hey
Rock n' roll saved the day
