In a dark horse town, in the middle of the west Where Friday takes so long to arrive Johnny wakes up dreaming and turns on the radio The he jumps up playin' his guitar in the mirror Starts his day with a rock and roll pulse Tonight's the night that Suzy and he Are goin' to a rock and roll show Tonight, I'm gonna see some rock and roll Yeah, my favorite group is playin' Tonight, I'm gonna see some rock and roll Well it's showtime, and he's caught up in the crowd He hates the crush, but he loves the music loud He reaches out, but Suzy's disappeared, Now Johnny's standin' on a corner, after the show Lookin' for his Suzy dear But there goes his Suzy in the band's limousine, yeah Well that's the way it goes at these rock and roll shows That's the way it goes It's rock and roll Well, that's the way it goes It's rock and roll Now Suzy's gone, and Johnny hears a thunder As he rolls another number and he counts He counts the times he's dreamt himself to be the hero 'Cause then when Suzy (was a bore??) He's heard about adventure As he looks into the mirror now he knows He must be the star and play guitar like thunder And find Suzy at his rock and roll show Boy, if I only had a good guitar and a big amp Boy, it wouldn't be somebody else takin' my girl away I tell ya, I know what I should do I'll put an ad in the paper, and get a few other guys Who want to play as much as I do I tell ya, I ain't playin' no surf music I'm gonna play some heavy music I'm gonna play bad, I'm gonna play loud I know just what I want it to sound like It's gonna sound like, it's gonna sound like - This is Don Kirshner And tonight on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert A new phenomenon in the music world With six million albums to his credit in just two short years My good friend, here's Johnny Now Johnny became a legend in his time Found it easier to live in pain Half-a-hero in a hard-hearted game Now it's showtime, and he's caught up in the glow He hates the rush but he needs the music so Still he reaches out, but Suzy's disappeared Well that's the way it goes at these rock and roll shows It's rock and roll That's the way it goes, it's rock and roll That's the way it goes, it's rock and roll
