38 Special - Prisoners of Rock 'n Roll lyrics

The searchlight cuts through the heart of the night We know your out there, don't put up a fight If you resist you're gonna miss all the fun From that backbeat rhythm you just can't escape You can plan your break but baby your gonna surrender Baby, you're under the gun Let it down just as far as you can Shakin' violation again and again So come on, rock 'n roll prisoners Let the music turn the key to your soul There is no escaping when the joint is shakin' We're prisoners, prisoners of rock 'n roll, oh no I was just a boy when the music took hold Watchin' the stones on the Sullivan show I was hooked, their rockin' took me away Well, I made my dreams and I made my plans Now I'm out on the road and got my home in my hand And I'm lonely, sometimes it's a ball and a chain Let it down just as far as you can Shakin' violations again and again and again Rock 'n roll prisoners Come on, prisoners rock 'n roll Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Let it down just as far as you can Shakin' violation again and again So come on, so come on, so come on Rock 'n roll prisoners Let the music turn the key to your soul There's no escaping when the joint is shaking We're prisoners, prisoners rock 'n roll Oh no, oh, oh Just a prisoner
