Judy Collins - Raised on Rock and Roll lyrics

Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul I've been wild since I was young Takin' my freedom out on the run Fought the rules, fought the ropes When I was rolling, when I was broke Did my drinking, had my fun Nothing ever got in my way Did my loving as I pleased "This is livin'," I used to say I am an eagle and I've got to fly Climbin' against the wind I am a spirit who will never break Never have a heart to mend Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul Somewhere on that freedom road Started fighting for my own soul Thought of Jimmy and Janis, too Livin' fast til they were through Then my heart began to break Fallin' when I wanted to fly Someone said, "Gal, slow down You're too young, too young to die" Even an eagle has to fall sometimes Climbing against the wind Even a strong heart has to break And learn to love and heal again All that runnin' got to me Could I stop and still be free? Could I break and still be whole? Would I live to rock and roll? Got some friends who stood by me Tellin' me that I would survive Said, "You're strong, you sing your song Know you're lucky to be alive" Still my spirit yearns to run Chasing every star in the sky Wild and free I'll always be I've got someone, I've got me I am an eagle and I have to fly Climbing against the wind I've had a heart that had to break To learn to heal and love again Even an eagle has to fall sometimes Climbing against the wind Even a strong heart has to break And learn to love and heal again Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul Oh, oh, I was raised on rock and roll Oh, and that music filled my soul
