They said rock and roll was dead and gone,
No more crowds to sing along.
But I feel a heartbeat in the floor,
Like it’s knocking, asking us for more.
Kids are finding grandpa’s old LPs,
Spinning records, dancing on their knees.
They don’t need a screen or fancy show,
Just a loud guitar and let it go.
(Chorus)
Turn it up, let the old songs play,
Shake the walls, chase the dark away.
Hands up high when the drums all hit,
This is our revival, this is it.
Sing it loud, let the whole world know,
We still live for that rock and roll.
Every beat is a brand‑new start,
Rock and roll revival in our heart.
Put on jeans and your worn‑out shoes,
Turn it up, there’s nothing to lose.
Clap your hands and stomp on the ground,
Feel the old rhythm coming around.
They tried auto‑tune and endless beats,
Perfect voices, perfect tweets.
A rough edge singing from the soul,
That’s the sound that makes us whole.
(Chorus)
Turn it up, let the old songs play,
Shake the walls, chase the dark away.
Hands up high when the drums all hit,
This is our revival, this is it.
Sing it loud, let the whole world know,
We still live for that rock and roll.
Every beat is a brand‑new start,
Rock and roll revival in our heart.
So we shout, “Rock and roll, come back home!”
You’re the reason we're not alone.
If your heart still jumps wnd starts to pound,
Rock and roll revival is back in town.
(Bridge)
We’re not done, we’re still alive,
Every chord brings back our drive.
The lights go down and the crowd sings too,
Rock and roll revival is comin on through!
One last chorus and shake these walls,
One last shout till the curtain falls.
If you feel the beat down in your soul,
That's true blue pure rock and roll!
(Chorus)
Turn it up, let the old songs play,
Shake the walls, chase the dark away.
Hands up high when the drums all hit,
This is our revival, this is it.
Sing it loud, let the whole world know,
We still live for that rock and roll.
Every beat is a brand‑new start,
Rock and roll revival in our heart.
