Every Inch Of The Way

Met an old friend today

And he told me he was real low

'Cause his music don't fit

With the change of the time

So I asked him to join me

That night for a free blow

Just like we did when we played

For those nickels and dimes

He took a chair and told me

That he'd think it over

Said that it was a while

Since he'd tickled the strings

So I told him to come along

If he was sober

And get high on the energy rock'n'roll brings

He said, I'll tell you no lie

I'll give it one more try

'Cause I love my old rock music

And I want it to stay

Just put me to the test

You bet I'll give my best

And I'll push her to the job

Every inch of the way

Late at home in the evening

I was sittin' and playin'

Looked to the bar on the stage

Came an old friend of mine

Said, he had it grooving

And figured on staying

And if it was okay by me

Could he join for awhile

I'll tell you no lie

I'll give it just one more try

'Cause I love my old rock music

And I want it to stay

Just get me to the test

You know I'm gonna give my best

And I'll push her to the job

Every inch of the way

I won't tell you no lie

'Cause I'm gonna give it

One more try

'Cause I love my old rock music

And it's got to stay

Just put me to the test

'Cause you know I'm gonna

Give my best

And I'll push her to the job

Every inch of the way

I'll tell you, tell you, tell you no lie

I'll give it one more try

'Cause I love my old rock music

And it's got to stay
