Letra Rock n roll man Elizabeth Cook

Rock n roll man

He got all of his money tied up in guitars

His poster hangin up at an east side bar

Sets his tip bucket up by the microphone stand

He don't think about it, he's a rock n roll man

I tried to run him off and set the record straight

He said girl you know better now, we're soulmates

Only one speaker working and his amp's blown out

Doesn't get what the hell the Grateful Dead is about

Wears a gold lightening bolt in one of his ears

Likes to talk about Elvis, but only in the Sun years

He got sheets over the windows and records on the floor

A poster of Jimi Hendrix on his bedroom door

He didn't go to college but he's read a lot of books

Married one time for money and one time for looks

There's always fist-fightin and drama in the band

Over cigarette ashes in a Budweiser can

Left town one time and didn't call me for 3 days

But he lets me know he loves me in other ways

Got my name spelled out in a dagger a tattoo

Says I'm the only woman that he can talk to

Thinks Brando and The Wild One and The Mystery Train

Are proof that rock n roll cannot be explained

Owes all kinds of money, but don't believe in debt

He'll be the first to tell ya, it ain't over yet

Sometimes we're Sid and Nancy or Courtney and Kurt

We get higher than heaven we get lower than dirt

It's the fightin' and the lovin' that make it work

Too lazy to be mean, and too mean to hurt

Make up and take me shopping at the Southern Thrift

Thanks the devil for his story and God for his gift

He got all of his money tied up in guitars

His poster hangin up at an east side bar

Sets his tip bucket up by the microphone stand

He don't think about it, he's a rock n roll man

He's a rock n roll man

He's my rock n roll man
