just take those old records off the shelf
i'll sit and listen to 'em by myself
today's music ain't got the same soul
i like that old time rock and roll
don't try to take me to a disco
you'll never even get me out on the floor
in ten minutes i'll be late for the door
i like that old time rock and roll
still like that old time rock and roll
that kind of music just soothes the soul
i reminisce about the days of old
with that old time rock and roll
won't go to hear them play a tango
i'd rather hear some blues or funky old soul
there's only one sure way to get me to go
start playing old time rock and roll
call me a relic, call me what you will
say i'm old-fashioned, say i'm over the hill
today's music ain't got the same soul
i like that old time rock and roll
