Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros - The Road To Rock & Roll lyrics

On the road to rock 'n' roll There's a lot of wreckage in the ravine Some you recognize Used to hang out on the scene On the road to rock 'n' roll We'll be in the delta by and by And if you don't believe in good and evil You can tell the devil why On the road to rock 'n' roll Come on everybody drift away On the road to rock 'n' roll Where I learned to play Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll What I learned to play On the road to rock 'n' roll Everybody carries a good luck charm Said to spook the highway wind Blowing off old Parchman farm On the road to rock 'n' roll They'll try to hook you by the eye There's a mirror in your soul You should turn it to the sky On the road to rock 'n' roll The lonely sing a soulful song Leave a little light in the wilderness For somebody to come upon On the road to rock 'n' roll With everybody deep in their dreams And the snow is falling on the city Ask the music what it means
