Rock 'n' roll bug J. Arnell When I first set out I thought that I knew My way and what I was gonna do Mom and dad had high hopes in me So I studied hard to get a degree Then I got caught – by the Rock n' roll bug Down at the record-store – oh how I dug 45' s I bought 'n' cut a rug Now there ain't no cure for the Rock 'n' roll bug At first my baby wasn' t pleased to say the least She cried every single record release She swore she was sure to leave If I did not stop starrin' at the record sleave Then she got caught – by the Rock n' roll bug Down at the record- store – oh how she dug 45' s she bought 'n' cut a rug Now there ain't no cure for the Rock 'n' roll bug It just ain't no cure for the Rock'n'roll bug Solo Soon as I got a little older I was told That "racket-noise" would surely leave me cold They said you can't go on driftin' like a slob You must quit the band and get a real job But I'm forever caught – by the Rock n' roll bug Down at the record-store – oh how I dug 45' s I bought 'n' cut a rug Now there ain't no cure for the Rock'n'roll bug It just ain't no cure for the Rock'n'roll bug I said there ain't no cure for the Rock'n'roll bug
