[Verse 1]
The ladies on the radio are telling all they know
We've reasoned all their sorrows and overheard their family quarrels
Gentlemen in velvet suits with perfumed hair and high-heeled boots
Are singing of the loves they've known and gardens where their changes grow

[Chorus]
But who's gonna sing my rock 'n' roll song?
Who's gonna tell my story?
Well, I can't tell my own, this voice is all alone
So the next time you sing, won't you please sing it for me?

[Verse 2]
Lines unwritten, never sung, recall a song I left undone
But time can turn a verse away, and I've forgotten what to say
So though my silence may pretend, this emptiness I can't defend
Still caught up inside my heart, can someone tell me where to start?

[Chorus]
And who's gonna sing my rock 'n' roll song?
Who's gonna tell my story?
Well, I can't tell my own, no, this voice is all alone
So the next song you sing, darling, please sing it with me

[Chorus]
Who's gonna sing my rock 'n' roll song?
Who's gonna tell my story?
Well, I can't tell my own, no, this voice is all alone
So the next time you sing, everybody sing it with me
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la (Oh yeah)
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la (Come on and sing it to me)
La-la-la-la-la-la
