We got addicted to this way of life
We signed a deal now we're doing our time
We're all enlisted in the armies of the night

They try to put us down and get us all locked up in chains
But here we're coming at it again

They think it's over, they're saying we're done
They tried their best but never succeeded
Who said rock n' roll is dead?
We might be bleeding, a little roughed up
But far away from being defeated
Who said rock n' roll is dead?

Keep throwing punches but we're standing tall
A thousand critics, we'll outlive them all
We're at our best with our backs against the wall

And once again
They wanna' shut it down and have us all fall back in line
Not this time
No, we are gonna' fight to remain
So here we're coming at it again

They think it's over, they're saying we're done
They tried their best but never succeeded
Who said rock n' roll is dead?
We might be bleeding, a little roughed up
But far away from being defeated
Who said rock n' roll is dead?

They think it's over, they're saying we're done
They tried their best but never succeeded
Who said rock n' roll is dead?
We might be bleeding, a little roughed up
But far away from being defeated
Who said rock n' roll is dead?
