Chuck Berry is STILL Rock and Roll!

\nWhen Johnny B Goode needed something to play
\nThere was only one man who had something to say
\nThe Music he made will live on for all time
\nChuck Berry was always sublime<\/p>\n
Roll Over Beethoven he made something new
\nBy mixing sweet swing with the best of the blue
\nA foot tapping beat tied to words all could sing
\nChuck Berry was Rock and Roll’s king<\/p>\n
The music of Memphis in old Tennessee
\nWas quickly subverted by something more free
\nThe Beatles, The Stones, Buddy Holly and more
\nChuck Berry had opened the door<\/p>\n
When \u00a0Reelin’ and Rockin’ with your Maybellene
\nHe gave you the moves that would make her your queen
\nThe duck-walk and riffs that took over your heart
\nCheck Berry tore music apart<\/p>\n
His Ding-a-Ling’s chimed and his fame’s Almost Grown
\nHe’s parted the stage but we’re not on our own
\nThere’s still enough fun to fill everyone’s soul
\nChuck Berry is STILL Rock and Roll!<\/p>\n
