Rocking On A Stereo

I don't know, honey, what I've been told
Jesus taught the sinners how to rock n' roll
He put them in a room
cranked up the tunes
before too long they were howling at the moon
all it takes, baby, is some rocking on a stereo.

Listening now there's nothing I crave
Nobody's learning from the greats these days.
They think music started when they hit the ground.
But I have faith the good won't let us down
'cause all it takes, baby, is some rocking on a stereo.

(chours) Rockin me baby on a stereo
takes my mood where we wanna go
Good times and songs and words with wings
something for everyone to dance and sing
Rocking me baby on a stereo
takes my mood where we wanna go
all the people need is a rocking on a stereo.

When I was a kid it was the loners who made it
now it's the homecoming queens and the track stars who take it.
and just because you're cute it don't mean that you sing
popularity means nothing
all that it takes is some rocking on a stereo.

When's the last time you heard a new song
hit the radio waves and it made you sing along?
Made you want to find the record and make the song your own
the song was your friend and you never felt alone
all the people need is a rocking on a stereo.

(chorus)

I'm about to give up on this silly game
playing my songs, trying to get a name
maybe someday down the line somewhere
a melody I made will be ringing in the air
but all I needed was a rocking on a stereo.

Maybe you'll wonder where the tune came from
maybe you'll dance and you start to sing along
but it will be too late to see me in my prime
too late to save all the saints from the crimes
all that we needed was rocking on a stereo.

(chorus)
