By kris kristofferson, bob neuwirth and roger mcguinn Do I look like a loser? Do I stand in your way? A threat to your future You planned yesterday Well, I fought for my freedom Some called it a crime Convicted of running On rock and roll time Chorus: I said rock and roll time Please take me away To the whiskey and wine Of some better day And if sometimes it seems Im falling behind Remember Im running
On rock and roll time Im judged in your airports Each time that I fly Ive been locked in your jailhouse Oh, but Im getting by Just hoping that heaven Is happy and high And everyones running On rock and roll time Chorus: I said rock and roll time Please take me away To the whiskey and wine Of some better day And if sometimes it seems Im falling behind Remember Im running On rock and roll time
