Song Lyrics:

[Chorus:]
Rock and roll will never die
But rock-and-rollers do
I don't know the reason why
I just know it's true
Rock and roll is here to stay
But rock-and-rollers pass away

Buddy Holly died at twenty-two
And if your plane hits a mountain, you'll die too
Just ask Otis Redding and Rick Nelson too

Marvin Gaye, he died at forty-four
His father shot him point-blank on the floor
So if you beat up your dad, do a good job, then run out the door

Paul McCartney died but he wasn't dead
That was just a rumor that somebody said
John Lennon was the Beatle that bled

Karen Carpenter died at thirty-two
And if you don't eat a thing, you know that you'll die too
Just ask Bobby Sands and Mahatma Gandhi too

Mama Cass died at thirty-one
Choked to death on a chicken sandwich in London
If She'd known the Heimlich maneuver
They could've had an authentic Mamas and the Papas reunion

Dennis Wilson died at thirty-nine
Well, he drowned to death in the salty brine
So all you Beach Boys, don't drink and dive

Kurt Cobain died at twenty-seven
He left Nirvana and he went to heaven
He used a twelve-gauge, not an eleven

Uh-uh- huh (2x)
Elvis Presley died at forty-two
And if you take drugs and eat crap, you'll die too
Just ask Jimi, Janis, Brian, Keith, Sid, Darby and Jim Morrison too

[Repeat Chorus]
