When I was young, just a lad,
Rangers were great and Celtic bad.
We guddled trout in Penkill burn.
Newton Stewart, place to roam round.
Was that picture house to blame?
Where Elvis sang "His Latest Flame"
Or was it a kirk or Penningham School?
Yeah, but now I'm a man, I'm no fool.
There's one thing I want to say before I go
That I believe in rock'n'roll.
I believe in little birds
I believe in dirty girls
I believe in going to hell
I believe I'll ring that bell
I believe in travelling far
I believe in the loud guitar
I believe that Elvis is king
I believe in everything
But most of all I've got to say -
I believe in rock'n'roll.
People say "Just read the facts",
I read them, you can have them back.
People say "It's all so shallow",
Like deep sea diving to me.
Most of all I've got to say -
I believe in rock'n'roll.
Most of all I've got to say -
I believe in rock'n'roll.
