We Built This City Lyrics by Mighty Good Road

Popular Folk

2020

Say you don't know me or recognize my face
Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
Too many runaways eating up the night
Marconi played the mambo
Listen to the radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Someone's always playing corporation games
Too bad they're always changing corporation names
We just came to dance here but someone stole the stage
They call us irresponsible, write us off the pagе
Marconi played the mambo
Listen to thе radio
Don't you remember?
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Well it's just another Sunday on some tired old street
The police have got the choke hold and we
Well, we just lost the beat
Who counts the money underneath the bar?
Who rides the wrecking ball into our guitars?
Don't say that you need us 'cause we're that ship of fools
Coming to America, crawling through your schools
Don't you remember?
We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
