You have to know where you're going

Before you say goodbye

You have to know what you're asking

Before you ask why

And I think to myself, wonderful way

My world revolves just a different way

And I think for a while reflecting a smile

If changes are coming, I gotta say

You have to know where you're going

Before you say goodbye

You have to know what you're asking

Before you ask why

Love, love

Children of rock 'n' roll

Love, love

Raised on rock 'n' roll

I remember all the words of

Love that we sang out of tune

Waving goodbye to a generation

As we danced by the light of the moon

I remember oh so clear how the world

Looked from Blueberry Hill

When you sang all the songs

On a six-string guitar

And it made you a rock 'n' roll star

You have to know where you're going

Before you say goodbye

You have to know what you're asking

Before you ask why?

You have to know where you're going

Before you say goodbye

You have to know what you're asking

Before you ask why

Children of rock 'n' roll

Raised on rock 'n' roll

Children of rock 'n' roll

We played Elysian Park

Until the night was dark

Children of rock 'n' roll

We traveled eight miles high

We never saw the sky

Children of rock 'n' roll

We had a beautiful day

When an island gave way

To the children of rock 'n' roll

And in the Garden of Dreams

We found out what it means

To be the children of rock 'n' roll

Raised on rock 'n' roll

Raised on rockin', raised on rockin'

Raised on rockin' ways

Raised on rockin', raised on rockin'

Raised in rockin' days

Raised on rockin', raised on rockin'

Raised on rockin' ways

Raised on rockin', raised on rockin'

Raised in rockin' days
