They say that you play too loud
Well baby that’s tough
They say that you got too much
Can’t get enough
They tell you that you look a fool
And baby I’m a fool for you
They say that your mind’s diseased
Shake your stuff
[Chorus]
And it’s a rock ‘n’ roll damnation
Ma’s own whippin’ boy
Rock ‘n’ roll damnation
Take a chance while you still got the choice
You say that you want respect
Honey for what?
For everything that you’ve done for me
Thanks a lot
Get up off your bended knees
You could set your mind at ease
My temperature’s running hot
I’ve been waiting all night for a bite of what you got
[Chorus]
Damnation, they’re puttin’ you down
Damnation, all over town
Damnation, cause you’re way outta reach
Livin’ on the streets you gotta practice what you preach
[Chorus]
Damnation, left a happy home
Damnation, to live on your own
Damnation, you want to live in sin
Damnation, it’s a rock ‘n’ roll
Damnation, just a bundle of joy
Damnation, you’re a toy for a boy
Damnation, you got dollars in your eye
Damnation, chasin’ that pie in the sky
Damnation, rock ‘n’ roll
Damnation
