While we still have rock and roll
((c) 1997 Mark Campbell)
This is my signature song . It says as much as I would want to say if there is only one song to be remembered by . But then , there's Salome Sunrises , which is the definition of a song to be remembered .... but back to this song .......
It will probably be the title track , and being one of the older ones , given a good edit of about three minutes off , be radio ready . Originally at 6:10 minutes , just too long for airlplay , although it might've ....oh , yeah ..... that's right , Loris Lowe played it at least once on her Local Licks show on KLBJ FM Austin , when it was originally released as the longest- song -ever- to -be -recorded -in -history .
The timeless drumming of Keith York , which by the way is the worst description for a drummer .......let me rephrase that ........ he keeps excellent time ( we did this one a while ago

........LYRICS..........
While I still have two strong hands and I have the will to try do you think I can raise my fists and yell and touch the sky?
As I shake the hand of time the love of life is mine , I'm standing on the edge the view from here is fine .
While we still have rock and roll why don't we give it heart and soul , it's the breath of life it's the blood in your veins don't you ever let it go .
As I stand with my guitar and I'm belting out a phrase , and I hear somebody at the bar says "He's changed the words to Purple haze."
While we still have rock and roll , why don't we give it heart and soul , it's the breath of life it's the blood in your veins don't you ever let it go . As I shake the hand of time the love of life is mine I'm standing on the edge the view from here is fine .
If I never had any pain , I might not have had much soul , and you give and you take so much that you tend to lose control .
As I stand with my guitar and I'm belting out a phrase , and I hear somebody at the bar says "He plays guitar like Jimmy Page ."
While we still have rock and roll why don't we give it heart and soul ? It's the breath of life it's the blood in your veins dont you ever let it go .
While we still have rock and roll , While we still have rock and roll , don't you ever give up don't you ever let go . Nana nanananana
While we still have rock and roll why don't we give it heart and soul ? It's the breath of life it's the blood in your veins dont you ever let it go . While I still have two strong hands , and I have the will to try , do you think I can raise my fists and yell and touch the sky ?
As I shake the hand of time the love of life is mine , I'm standing on the edge , the view from here is fine .
If I didnt have any luck , and I might not have had a prayer , I'm dancing on a dream tap dancing on a double dare .
While we still have rock and roll why don't we give it heart and soul ? It's the breath of life it's the blood in your veins dont you ever let it go . If I never had any pain , then I might not have had much soul , and you give and they take so much that you tend to lose control .
While we still have rock and roll , While we still have rock and roll , don't you ever give up don't you ever let go . Nana nanananana
As I press the hand of time , the love of life is mine Im standing on the edge the view from here is fine .
If I didn't have any luck , then I might not have had a prayer ,dancing on a dream tap dancing on a double dare .
While we still have rock and roll why dont we give it heart and soul .
. rock and roll .
