I Love Rock N' Roll
by Alan Merrill and Jake Hooker, 1975
performed by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts

I saw him dancin' there
By the record machine
I knew he must have been
About seventeen

The beat was going strong
Playing my favorite song
And I could tell it wouldn't be long
'Til he was with me, yeah me
And I could tell it wouldn't be long
'Til he was with me, yeah me, singin'
I love rock n' roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock n' roll
So come on take your time and dance with me
He smiled so I got up
And asked for his name
That don't matter, he said
'Cos it's all the same

I said can I take you home
Where we can be alone?
Next we were moving on
And he was with me, yeah me
Next we were movin' on
And he was with me, yeah me, singin'
I love rock n' roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock n' roll
So come on take your time and dance with me
I said can I take you home
Where we can be alone?
Next we were moving on
And he was with me, yeah me
And we were movin' on
And singing that same old song, yeah with me, singin'
I love rock n' roll
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
I love rock n' roll
So come on take your time and dance with me
(repeat chorus till end)
