lyrics
Gonna leave this town
Still spitting dust
Well I like the country fine
But it just don’t like us
Curve of your ass
On the fresh Kentucky grass
Like butterflies and apple pies
It makes the summer last
We’re rock solid
Rock solid
It don't take much
To keep our hearts in touch
Singing out of key with Johnny C
I love you so damn much
Heard the city lights
Heard the devil's scream
Don't fish in the East River
For your Coney Island dreams
We're rock solid
Rock solid
People say you’re cold, and you are
You wear the road like an ancient scar
You wear the road like an ancient scar
Oh the great debates
In such modern times
Can take an awful while
The finer points of
Whether dogs can smile
Oh you think
That they can
But you’re not sure
About man
We can hang down by the Chelsea
Play "name the dying star"
On the corner where rock and roll got a sex change
There we are
There we are
There we are
There we are (we're rock solid)
There we are (we're rock solid)
There we are (we're rock solid)
Still spitting dust
Well I like the country fine
But it just don’t like us
Curve of your ass
On the fresh Kentucky grass
Like butterflies and apple pies
It makes the summer last
We’re rock solid
Rock solid
It don't take much
To keep our hearts in touch
Singing out of key with Johnny C
I love you so damn much
Heard the city lights
Heard the devil's scream
Don't fish in the East River
For your Coney Island dreams
We're rock solid
Rock solid
People say you’re cold, and you are
You wear the road like an ancient scar
You wear the road like an ancient scar
Oh the great debates
In such modern times
Can take an awful while
The finer points of
Whether dogs can smile
Oh you think
That they can
But you’re not sure
About man
We can hang down by the Chelsea
Play "name the dying star"
On the corner where rock and roll got a sex change
There we are
There we are
There we are
There we are (we're rock solid)
There we are (we're rock solid)
There we are (we're rock solid)
