Shakin' Stevens - Rock 'N' Roll Singer Lyrics

Well once upon a time it was a sinner crime
To be a rock’n’roll singer.
You were a long time user, a music abuser
If you we’re an all in all singer.

You we’re the thug with the bug drinkin’out the jug
Just a J.D man
Just a country boy, a music star
The current high caller.

But everybody’s a rock’n’roll singer today
You’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know
A rock’n’roll singer today.

[SOLO]

Yeah Manfred Mann has a rock’n’roll band
John Mayall can really wail
And little Elton John is really gone
Well superstars all classic rock
Tryin’ very hard to shock
Be the first head on your block
They write songs all double pie
They all livin’ a lie
S word on a purple sky

But everybody’s a rock’n’roll singer today
You’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know
A rock’n’roll singer today
I said you’re the hip flask ringer, be hot man to know
A rock’n’roll singer today
