Lyrics

Roddy's daddy Denny saved every penny To buy a guitar for Rod Three jobs a day, he took all his pay And he went down to Don's pawn shop Don said "Denny, if you buy this guitar Your son will be a rock'n'roll star" Roddy tried his best, he couldn't pass the test But he knew that he would some day Roddy's baby Betty, she's got a baby That she had with Rod's friend Roge Sucking on a jelly donut at the deli Betty's baby cries for Rod Denny called Betty, said, "Stay away from my son" Betty said, "Denny, Roge and I are finished And Rod is my number one" Betty's dad Kenny talked to Bеtty's mom Jenny And said, "What can we do?" Betty's daddy Kеnny, he called back Denny And said that he and Rod are true Betty, too, knows that it's true, that it's gonna come true That rock'n'roll dreams'll come through That it will be true that rock'n'roll dreams'll come through Listen everybody, rock'n'roll dreams'll come through! The music is the master, can't you hear it calling you? The rock will bathe you, the roll could save you If you're one of the chosen few That the dream comes true that rock'n'roll dreams'll come through Roddy's brother Buddy, he's got a buddy Who works at the five and dime Whose uncle Ron runs a recording studio Roddy shows up with a six-string friend And a head full of tunes Laid down some tracks, and the tape burned with rock n' roll fire Rod took the tape to Radio Rob The biggest DJ in the land Rob told Rod that it rocks Rod told Rob, "get it on the air" Record Store Ben said, "I'll take ten, no, fifty-five 45s" The very next night, the song hit the charts Straight in at number one It took a lot of work, blood, sweat and tears And Roddy's now a rock'n'roll star He'll be the first to tell you that rock'n'roll dreams'll come through Listen everybody, rock'n'roll dreams'll come through! The music is the master, can't you hear it calling you? The rock will bathe you, the roll should save you If you're one of the chosen few That the dream comes true that rock'n'roll dreams'll come through
