Don't play your rock'n'roll to me
That ain't the way it's meant to be
I ain't so blind that I can't see
Just let it lie, let it be

Chorus:
So don't play your rock'n'roll, no
Don't play your rock'n'roll, no
Don't play your rock'n'roll to me

Well I know you think I'm crazy to keep hanging' round
But I was sort of hopin' you'd change from the girl I found
But you words just sound like rock'n'roll lines to me
And they're just about as burnt out as a worn out forty five
And you can't expect them to keep our love alive

So don't play your rock'n'roll to me
That ain't the way it's meant to be
I ain't so blind that I can't see
Just let it lie, let it be

Chorus

Well I guess you had me fooled for a while
with your come on looks and your Mona Lisa smile
But your rock'n'roll is getting out of time for me
Go sing your lines to someone else cause someone else may be
The fool you always thought you saw in me

So don't play your rock'n'roll to me
That ain't the way it's meant to be
I ain't so blind that I can't see
Just let it lie, let it be

Chorus
