Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 three?
[Verse 2]
When they play their music
Ooh, that modern music
They like it with a lot of style
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really, really drives 'em wild
[Chorus]
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beatin'
And from what I've seen, I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathin'
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beatin'
[Verse 3]
LA, Hollywood, and the Sunset Strip
Is something everyone should see
Neon lights and the pretty, pretty girls
All dressed so scantily
[Verse 4]
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...
[Chorus]
They say the heart of rock and roll is still beatin'
And from what I've seen, I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathin'
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beatin'
Johnny!
Ow!
[Verse 5]
DC, San Antone and the Liberty Town
Boston and a-Baton Rouge
Tulsa, Austin, Oklahoma City
Seattle, San Francisco too
[Chorus]
Everywhere there's music
Real live music
Bands with a million styles
But it's still that same old rock and roll music
That really, really drives 'em wild
[Chorus]
Th-th-th-th-they say the heart of rock and roll is still beatin'
And from what I've seen, I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathin'
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beatin', yeah
[Outro]
In Cleveland
Detroit
Uh, heart of rock and roll
