Well we come from down in Texoma
So let me stand up and say
We like Willie Nelson,
JJ Cale, Chet Baker
God bless Stevie Ray
Okemah to Stillwater
Tulsa, Oklahoma City
Austin up to Dallas, too
Houston, San Antone
Anywhere that we roam
Hey this is what we like to do

Play some rock and roll music to the world
Rock and roll music to the world
Ain't no relation to the united nations
Just rock and rollin' to the world
Get up and dance
Give peace a chance
And I say rock and roll music to the world

I want to scream
I want to shout
Take all my emotions
Work 'em all right out
I say, yeah, that's what I did
Don't need to fight
Have fun tonight
And I say rock and roll music to the world

Playin' rock and roll music to the world
Rock and roll music to the world
Well it may sound funny
But I ain't got no money
I just keep rockin' to the world
Just turn me loose
Turn up the juice
And I'll play rock and roll music to the world

I tell the truth
I ain't no star
I just sit back
And leave the rest to my guitar

singin' rock and roll music to the world
Rock and roll music to the world
It ain't no relation to the united nations
Keep rock and rollin' to the world
No need to fight
Have fun tonight
And I say rock and roll music to the world
