Born And Raised On Rock And Roll

I was born here in the midwest
Where we coined the phrase that they still call "rock and roll"
Those rainy old days and cold winter nights
Could never stop the backbeat in my soul

And every time they told me
That it was only the fool
Who would waste their life in a backstage dive
For a good time and a tune i'd say.....

I was born and raised on rock and roll
I learned to sing off the radio
When your born and raised on rock and roll
You play it loud from the heart and soul

Well i really never made much money
But i sure learned a lot about life playing rock and roll
'cause i drove a million miles and copped a lot of styles
Playing one night stands 'til i couldnt get it up anymore

And every day i wonder
What it means to be secure
Do you think i'll ever find out
What the rest of my life means for sure?
