Jenny said, when she was just five years old

You know there's nothin' happening at all

Every time she put on the radio

There was nothin' goin' down at all

Not at all

 

One fine mornin', she puts on a New York station

And she couldn't believe what she heard at all

She started dancin' to that fine-fine-fine-fine music

Ooohhh, her life was saved by rock 'n' roll

Hey baby, rock 'n' roll

 

Despite all the amputation

You could dance to a rock 'n' roll station

And it was alright

It was alright

Hey babe

 

Jenny said, when she was just five years old

You know there's nothin' happening at all

Two TV sets, two Cadillac cars

Ahhh, hey, ain't help me nothin' at all

Not at all

 

One fine morning, she heard on a New York station

She couldn't believe what she heard at all

Not at all

 

Despite the amputation

You could dance to a rock 'n' roll station

It was alright

It was alright

Oh, now here she comes now-now

 

Jenny said, when she was just five years old

You know there's nothin' happening at all

Yeah, every time she put on the radio

There was nothin' goin' down at all

Not at all

 

Then one fine morning, she put on a New York station

And she couldn't believe what she heard at all

She started dancing to that fine-fine music

Ahh, her life was saved by rock 'n' roll

Rock 'n' roll

 

Despite all the amputation

You could dance to the rock 'n' roll station

Done
