I Told You So

(专辑： Manhattan Melodrama - 1975)

In 1961 you told me rock' n' roll was done
In 1962 you told me rock 'n' roll was through
In 1963 you told me it was under me
In 1964 you didn't wanna rock 'n' roll no more

But I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay
I told you rock 'n' roll will not fade away!
I told you so, 'cause I 'd go for more
I told you so I told you so
I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay!

In 1965 you put down blues n' boogie n' jive
In 1966 you started out on your acid licks
In 1967 "cool" showed you the way to heaven
In 1968 you told me everything mellow was great

But I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay
I told you rock 'n' roll will not fade away!
I told you so, 'cause I 'd go for more
I told you so I told you so
I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay!

In 1969 you told me it was out of time
In 1970 you lost your lament of frailty
In 1971 you started fighting and having fun
In 1972 you really started coming right through

But I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay
I told you rock'n' roll will not fade away!
I told you so, 'cause I 'd go for more
I told you so I told you so
I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay!

In 1973 your radio's getting through to me
In 1974 everybody rocking.. some more
In 1975 everybody feeling that solid jive!
I told you rock 'n' roll was here to stay!
I told you rock 'n' roll win not fade away!
I told you so! I told you so ! I told you so!
