Words and music [bad word] Ballard
 [bad word]  
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you 
Put it in the soul of everyone. 
God gave rock and roll to you, gave rock and roll to you 
Put it in the soul of everyone. 

You can learn to dance 
Or you can be a square 
You can let the music take you anywhere 
But where will you be when the music's gone? 

You can learn to sing 
You can play guitar 
You can learn to rock 
You can be a star 
But where will you be when the music's gone? 

If you love the sound 
Then don't forget the source 
You can turn around, 
You can change your course, 
'Cause it's never too late to change your mind. 

You can love the rock 
And let Him free your soul 
Or you can let the old man take his toll 
It's never too late to change your mind.
