Long ago when rock was young
It was all about girls, cars, having fun
Dancing to the latest songs on the radio

But now it's deep, dark, down, and depressed
I wonder when it was we all got stressed
I really miss the summers by the stereo

But I still remember
Like it was yesterday
All the songs my DJ would play

Rock n' Roll radio
What happened to the friend I used to know
You were there when I needed you most
Now you're just a ghost of Rock n' Roll

When Rock n' Roll turned a sweet 16
He was dancin' at the prom with his beauty queen
And Saturday nights Casey counted 'em from 40 to one

But now the music's all compromised
The demographic market size a___yzed
And has to answer to the corporation bottom line

But I still remember
Like it was yesterday
All the songs my DJ would play

Rock n' Roll radio
What happened to the friend I used to know
You were there when I needed you most
Now you're just a ghost of Rock n' Roll

After school we're cool just playing our stack of 45's
Or tune our favorite station in and let the music fill our lives
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon!

[Repeat 3 times]
Rock n' Roll radio
What happened to the friend I used to know
You were there when I needed you most
Now you're just a ghost of Rock n' Roll
