Eric Clapton - I've Got A Rock 'N' Roll Heart Lyrics






I've got a feeling we could be serious, girl;
Right at this moment, I could promise you the world.
Before we go crazy, before we explode,
There's something 'bout me, baby, you got to know,
You got to know.

[Chorus:]
I get off on '57 Chevys;
I get off on screaming guitar.
Like the way it gets me every time it hits me.
I've got a rock and roll, I've got a rock and roll heart.

Feels like we're falling into the arms of the night,
So if you're not ready, don't be holdin' me so tight.
I guess there's nothing left for me to explain;
Here's what you're gettin' and I don't want to change,
I don't want to change.

[Chorus]

I don't need to glitter, no Hollywood,
All you got to do is lay it down and you lay it down good.

[Chorus]

    I was searching for a song I heard a guy singing at a bandstand & while I knew the melody the only words I could remember were “I get off on____”...so I just typed that and rock & roll into the search bar...and this is exactly the song I was looking for! 😊

  57. J.... S....

    Whenever this record would come on the radio (when it was new...), If I was in my car, I'd SCREAM out the window, as loud as I could: "GUITAR"!!!!! Just to see if it would "get me off", It didn't. But I was driving a '61 Buick instead of a '57 Chevy, Your mileage may vary.

  58. a.... ....

    Eric Clapton could sing the phone book and it would sound superb! I love to hear him sing <3

  62. J.... J....

    My dude, completely! What he does to a guitar, is just amazing!!!!

  63. c.... ....

    Shit - this is Clapton? For some reason I always thought it was Joe Cocker for some reason.

  65. R.... E....

    Me Too,,

  66. M.... K....

    A classic!! Love it!!

  67. A.... D....

    That guitar is me melting down the side of the bed after the insanely good sex I just had with Mr. Clapton. And yes, I called him Mr. Clapton throughout the entire 11 hour marathon ( I also insisted he keep his suit on too). A girl can only dream.

  68. O.... V....

    Too bad he's a wife-beating racist douche nozzle.

  69. A.... A....

    Whatta..simple song........I love it.

  70. O.... O....

  72. B.... ....

    First heard this in Feb, 1983...while digging out of a snowstorm somewhere in the Mid-Atlantic states. Brings back memories. Thx. for posting.

  73. R.... B....

    I do love Chevy's, and I do get off on screaming guitars... Clapton is God

  74. A.... S....

    Remember when ironing your guitar to remove the strings...

  75. L.... H....

    As much of a fan as I am of the early Clapton hits, I really enjoy the music that came about with this album and those that followed. Clapton is God!

  76. T.... ....

    Recorded at Compass Point Studios in Nassau Bahamas, after his first alcohol rehab....Beautiful song.

  77. F.... E....

    Roger Hawkins at drums, Duck Dunn plays the bass.

  78. F.... E....

    Am I truthful?

  79. S.... H....

    i noticed that there were 72 idiots who actually gave this song a 👎. Can't fix stupid

    S.... H....

    Regretfully as of 9/27/17 there are now 82 'idiots' - tasteless oafs .

  80. �.... ....

    one of my favorites

  81. C.... S....

    Who on earth thumbs down? They must be deaf aliens

    C.... S....

    Christopher Shupert This song sucks DONKEY BALLS. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  82. c.... a....

    Hes the man.

  83. S.... G....

    good song

  84. S.... G....

    great song. from one if the best.

  85. w.... w....

    yes to all these comments!!!!!!!!

  86. K.... W....

    What gets me is Eric's greatest Fan was a Black Man from Seattle that went all the way to England just to tell him that. AND THE REST IS HISTORY.. ;)

    K.... W....

    Yep,Jimi was approached by his manager Chas Chandler about moving to England. Jimi's response was will I get to meet Eric Clapton? So you are RIGHT! By the way your comment is one of the greatest I have ever heard. Rock on brother.

    K.... W....

    Yup. Good music has nothing to do with color. Some of Eric's best friends were black too. Buddy guy, Albert and B.B. were close to him just as much as one of my favs Stevie Ray Vaughn. I'm black and think Eric has been good since he was with the Doobie Brothers in San Jose. Lol. Real artist with real talent singing his own written heart felt music. They don't make artist like this anymore naturally. Now they build them like cars at a GM factory. Ride on guys and make sure you play this atleast 2 more times then move the living room furniture to make enough room to slow dance with your woman to Wonderful Tonite by Eric next.

    K.... W....

    Jimi...... died way too soon. If legends like him we're still alive and B.B. all the great blues guy with a few rock and rollers all playing together for a good old fashion super show would be great for this country right about now.

    K.... W....

    @Mr. Freightliner Shh- Shh- Did you say the legendary BB. King? Born in 1957 naturally I get off on 57 Chevies...

    K.... W....

    @Carolyn Ekuka well Rock on, Rock on. Lol. We can both play this song and we all will be connected.

  87. A.... S....

    Ah. Magical...

  88. c.... ....

    61 people do it with a Fast Hand...
    Fappers...
