She took me to the river
When I was seventeen
She said that I could give her
A little in between
I did not know what she was meaning
But I went all the way
And as I lay down beside her
I just had to say
    
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
It doesn't matter if you lose control
Let's just rock and roll
    
I went down to the social
It was just to sign my name
And he leaned across the table
Said I should feel a little shame
But I didn't want to hear him
As he was laying down his plans
I've got the money in the pocket
Now I'm all right where I am
    
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
It doesn't matter if you lose control
Let's just rock and roll
    
The reasons have gone missing
They have taken them away
We laugh in desperation
Just to brighten up our day
No one there can see
The sadness in our eyes
We're on this road to nowhere
And they've got us hypnotised
    
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
Let's roll, let's rock and roll
It doesn't matter if you lose control
Let's just rock and roll
