James Taylor - Rock 'n Roll Is Music Now lyrics

Mama knows and papa knows That rock 'n roll is music now Baby's been cutting his teeth on Bo diddley's, i'm a man, man Listen to the wolfman howl See the white man sailing his ship up on the sea Watch the white man shackle The black man to a tree To the invader go the fruits of war He misses home and his boots are sore He has not got no roots no more He comes for your gold Watch out for your soul Cause tennis shoes, and rhythm and blues Are second generation All across the nation, now And mama knows, papa too Rock 'n roll is music Rock 'n roll is music, now To the invader go the fruits of war He misses home and his boots are sore He has not got no roots no more He comes for your gold But watch out for your soul Mama knows and papa knows That rock 'n roll is music Rock 'n roll is music, now
