Lyrics

New York, New York, is everything they say
And no place that I'd rather be
Where else can you do a half a million things
All at a quarter to three?

And when they play their music
Ooh, that modern music
They play it with a lot of style
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
That really, really drives 'em wild

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what I've seen I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beating

LA, Hollywood and the Sunset Strip
Is something everyone should see
Neon lights and the pretty pretty girls
All dressed so scantily

And when they play their music
That heavy metal music
They like it with a lot of flash
But it's still that same old back beat rhythm
Really, really kicks 'em in the

They say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what I've seen I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beating

DC, San Antone and the Liberty Town, Boston and Baton Rouge
Tulsa, Austin, Oklahoma City, Seattle, San Francisco too

Everywhere there's music
Real live music
Bands with a million styles
But it's still that some old rock and roll music
Really, really drives 'em wild

Th-th-th-th-they say the heart of rock and roll is still beating
And from what I've seen I believe 'em
Now the old boy may be barely breathing
But the heart of rock and roll
Heart of rock and roll is still beating, yeah

In Cleveland
Chicago
Huh, heart of rock and roll
