lyrics

You gotta turn it up nice and loud to be heard over this crowd
The place is packed and comin alive that's how they kill a Saturday night
The locals seem to like us here, they give us a hand loading in the gear
there's a jackalope hanging on the wall and a blacklight poster in the bathroom stall

Once we figure out a song to play
There's no hurry we know the way
we'll make it all right for a little while
kick it down the road for another mile

It's still burning it won't grow cold
not fade away and not get old
Gather round and come warm yourself in the rock and roll sun

Three chords in which we trust a whole lotta rhythm and a little bit of rust
We're not tryin to reinvent the wheel we just want to make it roll and hear it squeal
They're out of tune as they sing along and some of the words they sing are wrong
But that's okay we don't mind as long as they're having a helluva time

If we're done early maybe we can
get some sleep in the back of the van
we'll make it all right for a little while
kick it down the road for another mile

It's still burning it won't grow cold
not fade away and not get old
Gather round and come warm yourself in the rock and roll sun

We'll get lost, but then we'll find ourselves here again
shake hands and reminisce with the friends and strangers we've missed
They had big plans in the good old days but things didn't work out that way
Now they're counting on us to never give in and hold onto those dreams for them

It's no mystery it's knowing
That the trick is to just keep going
we'll make it all right for a little while
kick it down the road for another mile

It's still burning it won't grow cold
not fade away won't get old
Gather round and come warm yourself in the rock and roll sun

It's still burning it won't grow cold
not fade away won't get old
Gather round and come warm yourself in the rock and roll sun
