I can't believe y'all are still sayin' 
        G 
We're a long way from rock'n'roll 
          D                        C 
You won't look for the good in the tunes we're playin' 
    G 
You prefer to say we got no soul 

    Em               A 
But day after day in town after town 
G                      D 
People say we're doin' alright 
   Em               A   
We play and we stay boogyin' down 
G 
Rockin' on into the night 

It's breath and words and time you're wastin' 
When you should be tryin' to have a good time 
For a good few years it's been yours we've tasted 
So here's a little piece of our mind 

We'll roll and we'll roll and we'll roll and we'll roll 
Till we run out of reason to try 
If it happens you don't approve 
It doesn't matter we won't ask why 

    A                      Bm   
You can't keep a good band {Bm}down 
       D                 A 
You'll never find the solution 
    A                     Bm 
You won't stop us runnin' around 
       D                      A 
You're dealin' with an institution 

We'll fill our cup with wine while you 
Fill your head with high ideals 
You }know so much but you still can't touch 
Tillyou find out how it feels 

It'll take much more than the high and mighty 
To bring down the king of the road 
We could {still be friends and quit this fightin' 
And let the real story be told 

You see you {A}can't keep a good band {Bm}down 
You'll {D}never find the solu{A}tion 
You {A}won't stop us runnin' {Bm}around 
You're {D}dealin' with an institu{A}tion 

You can't keep a good band down 
You'll never find the solution 
You won't stop us runnin' around 
With your paragraphs of pollution
