It's Still Rock And Roll To Me

Billy Joel


What’s the matter with the clothes I’m wearing can’t you tell that your tie’s too wide
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars welcome back to the age of jive

Chorus 1
Where have you been hiding out lately honey
You can't dress trashy 'til you spend a lot of money
Everybody's talking 'bout the new sound funny but
It's still rock and roll to me

What’s the matter with the car I’m driving can’t you tell that it’s out of style
Should I get a set of whitewall tires are you gonna cruise the miracle mile

Chorus 2
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me

Bridge
Oh it doesn't matter what they say in the papers cause it's always been the same old scene
There's a new band in town but you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine
Aimed at your average teen

How about a pair of pink sidewinders and a bright orange pair of pants
You could really be a Beau Brummel baby if you just give it half a chance

Chorus 3
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me

Alright Richie!

Instrumental

Woo!

What’s the matter with the crowd I’m seeing don’t you know that they’re out of touch
Should I try to be a straight ‘A’ student if you are then you think too much

Chorus 4
Don't you know about the new fashion honey
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me

Every body’s talkin’ ‘bout the new sound funny but
It’s still rock and roll to me
