Swayin' in motion to a rhythmic potion
Write on, baby, write on
Rock on, baby, rock on
Give 'em your licks, getting off on their kicks
Baby, shine on, get it together, let your light break through
Don't feel bad 'cos the radio ain't playing 'em
Shine on, get it together, let your light break through
Write on, baby, write on
It won't be long till you're going out and slayin' 'em
Listening to your songs, write on
You're not the first, you won't be the last
Hangers on, trying to make a con
Rock on, baby rock on
Who'll give you a hand on your one night stand
To feel the frustration of a musical fast
Find a man with a van, and a back up band
Rock and roll with a touch of soul
It won't be long till you're going out and slayin' 'em
Coming on strong, coming on strong
Swayin' in motion to a rhythmic potion
Ballads with feeling, send your audience reeling
Rock on, baby, rock on
Come on, come on, come on
Shine on, baby, shine on
Write on, for your fame and fortune will follow you
Find a man with a van, and a back up band
Sing your rock and roll with a touch of soul
Rock on, rock on
It's your life baby, you got to give it time
Give 'em your licks, getting off on their kicks
Give it to me
Write on, even though there's no one
Rock on, rock on
Who'll give you a hand on your one night stand
Ballads with feeling, send your audience reeling
You're not the first, you won't be the last
Shine on
Shine on, shine on
Rock on, baby, rock on
Rock on, baby, rock on
Shine on
Don't feel bad 'cos the radio ain't playing 'em
Rock on
Don't sign on the line till you know it's all fine
Sing your rock and roll with a touch of soul
Music freaks and all those hustlers
Ballads, baby, ballads with a feeling
To feel the frustration of a musical fast
Write on, sitting on your own, waiting for the phone
