I remember sixty-two

I was sixteen and so were you

And we lived next door on the avenue

Jerry Lee was big and Elvis too

Blue jeans and blue suede shoes

And we never knew what life held in store

We just wanted to rock 'n' roll forever more

We were the rock 'n' roll kids

Rock 'n' roll was all we did

And listenin' to those songs on the radio

I was yours and you were mine

That was once upon a time

Now we never seem to rock 'n' roll anymore

Now Johnny's in love with the girl next door

And Mary's down at the record store

They don't wanna be around us no more

Golden oldies, but we hardly speak

Too busy running to a different beat

Hard to understand we were once like them

How I wish we could find those rock 'n' roll days again

We were the rock 'n' roll kids

Rock 'n' roll was all we did

And listenin' to those songs on the radio

I was yours and you were mine

That was once upon a time

Now we never seem to rock 'n' roll anymore

I was yours and you were mine

That was once upon a time

Now we never seem to rock 'n' roll

We just never seem to rock 'n' roll anymore
