New York New York
is everything they say
And no place
that I'd rather be
Where else
can you do a half
A million things
all at a quarter
To there
when they palt
Their music
ooh that modern music
That like it
with a lot of style
But it's still that
same old back
Beat rhythm
that really really
Drives 'em wild
they say
The heart of
rock and roll
Is still beating
and from what
I've seen
I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be
barely breathing
But the heart of
rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll
is still beating~
LA Hollywood
and the sunset strip
Is something everyone
should see
Neon lights and the
pretty pretty girls
All dressed
so scantily
When they play
their music
That hard rock music
they like it
With a lot of flash
but it's still
That same old
back beat rhythm
That really really
kicks 'em in the
They say the heart of
rock and roll
Is still beating
and from what
I've seen
I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be
barely breathing
But the heart of
rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll
is still beating~

DC San Antone and
the liberty town
Boston and Baton Rouge
Tulsa austin
Oklahoma city Seattle
San Francisco too~
Everywhere
there's music
Real live music
band with
a million styles
but it's still that
Some old
rock and roll music
That really really
drives 'em wild
They~~~~ say the heart
of rock and roll
Is still beating
and from what
I've seen
I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be
barely breathing
But the heart of
rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll
is still beating
Yeah
yeah~~ yeah~
Um heart of
rock and roll~
