Tom had a job in a town outside the city
Was working very hard
Life was lookin` very pretty
Nothing going wrong with the rockabilly Song
That the radio was playing

But than came around
the Rock ` n` Roll beginning
Tom left the town and got into the singin`
Nothing was the same since he read a book
Saying "Wheels are freedom" nowadays

Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone
Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone

Tom had a band and made a good "a" livin`
Toured all the land
His dreams had been fulfillin`
Was bringing in some cash
But spent it all on hash
That`s when his life began to bend

Times were looking bad
He was lying` in a clinic
He lost all he had
The world was looking cynic
His innocence was gone
But it didn`t take him long
Now he`s singin` on the street
the song of his defeat
Oh yeah

Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone
Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone

Beans, Beans
The musical [bad word] The more you eat
The more you toot
The more you toot
The better you feel
So let`s have beans
For every meal

Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river like a rolling stone
Rock `n` roll stole my soul
Rockin` down the river lika a rolling stone
