Huey Lewis amp The News - The Heart Of Rock And Roll LYRICS

New York, New York, is everything they say

And no place that I'd rather be

Where else can you do a half a million things

All at a quarter to three

When they palt their music, ooh that modern music

They like it with a lot of style

But t's still that same old back beat rhythm

That really drives 'em wild



They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating

And from what I've seen I believe 'em

Now the old boy may be barely breathing

But the heart of rock and roll is still beating



LA, Hollywood, and the Sunset Strip

Is something everyone should see

Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls

All dressed so scantily

When they play their music

That hard rock music

They like it with a lot of flash

But it's still that same old back beat rhythm

That really kicks 'em in the



They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating

And from what I've seen I believe 'em

Now the old boy may be barely breathing

But the heart of rock and roll is still beating



DC, San Antone and the Liberty Town, Boston and Baton Rouge

Tulsa, Austin, Oklahoma City, Seattle, San Francisco, too

Everywhere there's music, real live music, bands with a million styles

But It's still that some old rock and roll music

that really drives 'em wild



They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating

And from what I've seen I believe 'em

Now the old boy may be barely breathing

But the heart of rock and roll is still beating
