Well, I was born in California, in 1941
You have to tell me if you've been alone,
cause I went to Mississippi just to rock & roll


Well, I was wasting all your money & wasting all your time
You have to tell me if you've been all right, cause I'm coming home tomorrow just to say goodbye


I'm not gonna take it.
I'm not gonna take it.

I'm not gonna take it.
No!


Well, I was crossing all the country, living on the road
You have to tell me if you've been alone,
cause I went to Mississippi just to rock & roll


I'm not gonna take it.
I'm not gonna take it.

I'm not gonna take it. No!



Nobody knows.
No easy road.
Nobody found an easy way to rock and roll.
