Long long time ago

Oh I can still remember

How the music used to make me smile

And we knew if we got a chance

That we could make the people dance

And maybe they'd be happy for a while

'Cause February made us shiver

With every paper we delivered

Bad news on the doorstep

I couldn't face one more step

Oh I can't remember if I cried

When they told me about his widowed bride

But something touched me here inside

The day the music died or did it

Everybody hazy shell-shocked and crazy

Screaming for the face at the window

Jeans for the genies dresses for the dreamies

Fighting for a place in the front row

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

(It's good for your body it's good for your soul)

Ohhh Ohhh let's go

(It's the golden age of rock and roll)

Well you getta little buzz send for the fuzz

Guitars getting higher and higher

The dude in the paint thinks he's gonna faint

Stoke more coke on the fire

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

(You gotta stay young you can never grow old)

Ohhh Ohhh Whoooa

(It's the golden age of rock and roll)

The golden age of rock and roll will never die

As long as children feel the need to laugh and cry

Don't wanna smash - want a smash sensation

Don't wanna wreck just recreation

Don't wanna fight - but if you turn us down

We're gonna turn you around gonna mess with the sound

The show's gotta move everybody groove

There ain't no trouble on the streets now

So if the going gets rough

Don't you blame us

You ninety-six decible freaks

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

(Its good for body its good for your soul)

Ohhh Ohhh Whoooa

(It's the golden age of rock and roll)

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

(You gotta stay young you can never grow old)

Ohhh Ohhh Whoooa

(Its good for body its good for your soul)

Ohhh Ohhh Whoooa

(It's the golden age of rock and roll)

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

(You gotta stay young you can never grow old)

Ohhh Ohhh Whoooa

(Its good for body its good for your soul)

That's all
