[length: 05:45]
[00:16.65]The old rocker wore his hair too long
[00:23.14]Wore his trouser cuffs too tight
[00:28.98]Unfashionable to the end
[00:35.83]Drank his ale too light
[00:41.82]Death’s head belts buckle
[00:44.94]Yesterday’s dreams
[00:47.70]The transport caf’ prophet of doom
[00:52.38]Ringing no change in his double-sewn seams
[00:59.67]In his post-war-babe gloom
[01:05.52]Now he’s too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[01:13.93]But he’s too young to die
[01:18.53]Yes, he’s too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[01:27.11]But he’s too young to die
[01:33.39]He once owned a Harley Davidson
[01:40.41]And a Triumph Bonneville
[01:45.63]Counted his friends in burned-out spark plugs
[01:52.87]And prays that he always will
[01:58.55]But he’s the last of the blue blood greasers boys
[02:05.62]And all of his mates are doing time
[02:11.82]Married with three kids up by the ring road
[02:18.58]Sold their souls straight down the line
[02:25.29]And some of them own little sports cars
[02:31.41]And meet at the tennis club do’s
[02:37.33]For drinks on a Sunday, work on Monday
[02:44.16]They’ve thrown away their blue suede shoes
[02:49.46]Now they’re too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[02:57.79]And they’re too young to die
[03:02.42]Yes, they’re too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[03:11.28]And they’re too young to die
[03:33.38]So the old rocker gets out his bike
[03:39.76]To make a ton before he takes his leave
[03:45.93]Up on the A1 by Scotch Corner
[03:52.93]Just like it used to be
[03:58.84]And as he flies, tears in his eyes
[04:05.17]His wind-whipped words echo the final take
[04:11.35]And he hits the trunk road doing around a 120
[04:18.69]With no room left to brake
[04:23.38]And he was too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[04:32.03]But he was too young to die
[04:36.56]He was too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[04:45.10]And he was too young to die
[04:50.17]No, you’re never too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[04:58.28]If you’re too young to die
[05:02.81]No, you’re never too old to rock ‘n’ roll
[05:11.67]But he was too young to die
