Hubbard Ray Wylie - Live and Die Rock and Roll lyrics

Mama cried and daddy burned When I told them what I learned An old stones lick and a dirty groove Let it bleed, you gotta move Some of us are born to run, out on highway 61 The Clash, Ramones and MC5 Nobody gets out of here alive It's live and die rock and roll It ain't something you control Stratocaster heart and high watt soul It's live and die rock and roll I heard Muddy Waters' "Hard Again" So went down to the crossroads to see a friend Broke out of jail turned 21 Workin' at the house of the rising sun I met my girl on a dead end street Some dirty deeds are done dirt cheep With the earth below and heaven above My girl gave it up to a whole lotta love It's live and die rock and roll It ain't something you control Stratocaster heart and high watt soul It's live and die rock and roll Rock & roll is a black snake moan Spit and sweat on the microphone Blood leaks down my arm and hand And the faith to believe in a band You know it aint november rain Its J.J. Cale's "Cocaine" Dem ol' kosmic blues eight miles high and Hendrix setting his strat on fire It's live and die rock and roll It ain't something you control Stratocaster heart and high watt soul It's live and die rock and roll It's live and die rock and roll It's live and die rock and roll It's live and die rock and roll It's live and die rock and roll
