When I was young my life was rock 'n' roll music
Just diggin' the wonderful sound
I'd get home from school and when I'd finished my lessons
I'd listen to music 'til the sun came around
I'd sit by the hour and pound my old piano
Pick out the chords to the songs
I'd heard on the air and on American Bandstand
Just learnin' the words and then singin' along

But who'd ever thought I'd be a rock 'n' roll...preacher
'Stead of just singin' the blues
Who'd ever thought I'd be a rock 'n' roll preacher
Singin' my....song so you can hear the good news

INSTRUMENTAL

Now that I'm free my heart is filled with the gladness
That comes when a life has been changed
The song I now sing has a different ring
The lyrics have meaning, but the tune is the same
But I want you to know I still love rock 'n' roll music
But now I have something to say
I'll sing you my song and maybe you'll sing along
And we'll make us a noise they'll hear in Heavenly places

Who'd ever thought I'd be a rock 'n' roll......preacher
'Stead of just singin' the blues
Who'd ever thought I'd be a rock 'n' roll..... preacher
Singing my.....song so you can hear the good news
