Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music - Live; 2004 Remastered Version
I want the people to know that He saved my soul
But I still like to listen to the radio,
They say that "Rock 'n roll is wrong, give you one more chance"
I said "I Feel so good, I gotta get up and dance"
I know what's right, I know what's wrong, I don't confuse it
Well, all I'm really tryin' to say is
Why should the devil have all the good music?
Yeah, I feel good everyday
'Cause Jesus is the rock and He rolled my blues away
They say to cut my hair, they're drivin' me insane
I grew it out long to make room for my brain
But sometimes people don't understand
What's a good boy doin' in a rock n' roll band
There's nothin' wrong with playin' blues licks
If you've got a reason, tell me to my face
Why should the devil have all the good music?
There's nothing wrong with what we play
'Cause Jesus is the rock and He rolled my blues away
I ain't knockin' the hymns, just give me a song that has a beat
I ain't knockin' the hymns, give me a song that moves my feet
Jesus told the truth and Jesus showed the way
One more thing I'd like to say
They nailed Him to the cross, and they laid Him in the ground
But they shouldn't known you can't keep a good man down
And I feel good everyday, I refuse to lose it
All I wanna know from all of you is
Why should the devil have all the good music?
I get down and I feel okay
Because Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues,
Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues
Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues away
But I still like to listen to the radio,
They say that "Rock 'n roll is wrong, give you one more chance"
I said "I Feel so good, I gotta get up and dance"
I know what's right, I know what's wrong, I don't confuse it
Well, all I'm really tryin' to say is
Why should the devil have all the good music?
Yeah, I feel good everyday
'Cause Jesus is the rock and He rolled my blues away
They say to cut my hair, they're drivin' me insane
I grew it out long to make room for my brain
But sometimes people don't understand
What's a good boy doin' in a rock n' roll band
There's nothin' wrong with playin' blues licks
If you've got a reason, tell me to my face
Why should the devil have all the good music?
There's nothing wrong with what we play
'Cause Jesus is the rock and He rolled my blues away
I ain't knockin' the hymns, just give me a song that has a beat
I ain't knockin' the hymns, give me a song that moves my feet
Jesus told the truth and Jesus showed the way
One more thing I'd like to say
They nailed Him to the cross, and they laid Him in the ground
But they shouldn't known you can't keep a good man down
And I feel good everyday, I refuse to lose it
All I wanna know from all of you is
Why should the devil have all the good music?
I get down and I feel okay
Because Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues,
Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues
Jesus is the rock, and He rolled my blues away
