If I could stick my pen in my heart

And spill it all over the stage

Would it satisfy ya would it slide on by ya

Would you think the boy is strange Ain't he strange

If I could win ya if I could sing ya

A love song so divine

Would it be enough for your cheating heart

If I broke down and cried If I cried

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it

I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it like it yes I do

Oh well I like it I like it I like it

I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely

If I could stick a knife in my heart

Suicide right on stage

Would it be enough for your teenage lust

Would it help to ease the pain Ease your brain

If I could dig down deep in my heart

Feelings would flood on the page

Would it satisfy ya would it slide on by ya

Would ya think the boy's insane He's insane

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it

I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it like it yes I do

Oh well I like it I like it I like it

I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely

And do ya think that you're the only girl around

I bet you think that you're the only woman in town

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but i like it

I said I know it's only rock 'n roll but I like it like it yes I do

Oh well I like it I like it I like it
