I Know how to Roll

I'm only a man, body and soul
That's all that I am, flesh blood and bone
My body is hot my spirit is cold
Do you know how to rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll.

An old friend of mine, once said to me
Good things come in time, just let it be
I have not forgot what I was told
Do you know how to rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll.

The women I've known some good some bad
The seeds I have sown the times I've had
I'd swap the lot to redeem my soul
Do you know how to rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll.

Feelings run deep course through my veins
Cause me to weep for my earthly remains
My spirit's in shock out of control
Do you know how to rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll.

You gave us rock and roll you gave us freewill
You set us on the road and were travelling still.
You gave us rock and roll you gave us the choice
You set us on the road you gave us our voice

When all's said and done when I show my hand
When my time has come I'll say to the man
I've taken stock the sum of the whole
I know that you rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll

I'm only a man, flesh blood and bone
That's all that I am, body and soul
My body is hot my spirit is cold
Do you know how to rock I know how to roll?
Yeah I know how to roll.
