Painted Window - Rock And Roll Religion lyrics

rate me

My whole life I've spent searching for a meaning

But whenever I think I'm close

My trail leads me back to rock and roll

I'm not a product of no to people

I ain't a gift from God

Even though I was raised a religious boy

My prayer is rock and roll

Yeah, I gave my parents hell until they kicked me out

Then I started a rock and roll life

Kept alive by the sweat, noise and the rush

Rushing down the same path

But it ain't a stairway to heaven

It's gonna be a baptism by fire

My whole life I've spent searching for a meaning

But whenever I think I'm close

My trail leads me back to rock and roll

I'm not a product of no two people

I ain't a gift from God

Even though I was raised a religious boy

My prayers are all rock and roll

God gave us heads so we could bang them to a beat

Hands to write and lips to sing not speak

But when God made sound

He didn't know I was a'coming

Yeah, my bread is a dirty heavy riff

My wine a guitar screaming out in the open air

Bangers can't be choosers

Cafeteria rockers need not apply

My whole life I've searched for a meaning

But whenever I seem close

My trail leads me back to rock and roll

I'm not a product of no two people

I ain't a gift from God

I was raised a religious boy

But my prayers were all rock and roll
