Rock & Roll Music to the World (John Peel Session, 23 November 1972)

We did some rock and roll up in Texas

And the folks from the Coast Towns said

You better watch yourself up in Texas

Or you, you might just end up dead, boy

But the people I found grooving to the sound

Of rock and roll music in the air

We all had a ball with no hassles at all

Pretty soon I'm gonna go back there

I'm singing rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't no relation to the United Nations

Keep rock and rolling to the world

Give peace a chance, get up and dance

When I sing rock and roll music to the world

I'm gonna scream, I'm gonna shout

Get my emotions and work them all right out

I wanna live just like I give

No need to fight, wait for tonight

When I sing rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't got no calling, except for balling

Rock and roll music to the world

Don't need no boost, just turn me loose

And I sing rock and roll music to the world

I tell the truth, I ain't no star

I only shout and leave the rest to my guitar

Rock and roll music to the world

Rock and roll music to the world

Ain't no relation to the United Nations

Keep rock and rolling to the world

Don't need no boost, just turn me loose

And I sing rock and roll music to the world
