Rock & Roll Lover lyrics

Another night, another band in town.

Up on the stage, they're really puttin' it down.

The singer says, "Are you feeling alright?"

You are too much, you kids are out of sight.

There in the rain, not long from out of class,

a girl asks the roadie for a backstage pass.

She makes straight 

for the dressing room door.

They could see she had been there before,

about a hundred times or more.

Julie wants a rock 'n' roll lover,

she don't want no other man.

Up to now she never made it,

but Julie's doing the best that she can.

Julie wants (Julie wants) a rock 'n' roll lover.

Now the band have played their last song

and out front all the people have gone,

but out back the night has just begun.

The band are high and they're ready for fun.

In awhile, the girls are moving in.

They know the game and they play to win.

Julie says, "I'll do the same."

Ain't it sad? Ain't it a shame?

They don't even ask her name.

Julie wants a rock 'n' roll lover,

she don't want no other man.

Up to now she never made it,

but Julie's doing the best that she can.

Julie wants (Julie wants) a rock 'n' roll lover.  

The band, they leave in their limousine.

Julie says, "Oh boy, it's so mean."

Once again she walks home alone,

but Julie is a hunter and a hunter must seek.

So she'll be back next week.

Julie wants a rock 'n' roll lover,

she don't want no other man.

Up to now she never made it,

but Julie's doing the best that she can.

Julie wants (Julie wants) a rock 'n' roll lover.  

Julie wants the rock 'n' roll romance.

If not forever, then just for the night.

Sees her friends makin' it with the band,

says "Oh boy, it don't seem right."
