A Dose of Rock ‘n’ Roll Lyrics by Ringo Starr

Photograph: The Very Best of Ringo Starr

1976

[Verse 1]
All right!
You're feeling down
You're feeling blue
You do know that you care
But you don't know what to do
[Chorus 1]
If your mama don't feel good
Or your daddy don't feel good
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool, clear soul, uh-huh
[Chorus 2]
You better get your ripple soles out (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Ease out all your mean controls (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool, clear soul, uh-huh
[Bridge]
Turn on your radio
Start dancing to the moon
That old heart radio
It's gonna get you (get you) get you (get you)
Get you in the mood
[Chorus 2]
You better get your ripple soles out (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Ease out all your mean controls (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool, clear soul, uh-huh
[Bridge]
Turn on your radio
Start dancing to the moon
That old heart radio
It's gonna get you (get you) get you (get you)
Get you in the mood
[Chorus 1]
If your mama don't feel good (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Or your daddy don't feel so good (shoo bop, shoo wow wow)
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
And wash it down with cool, clear soul, uh-huh
[Bridge]
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
Take a dose of rock 'n' roll
Wash it down with cool, clear soul, aha
[Outro]
Hey, hey, baby (dose of rock 'n' roll)
Why don't you take some rock 'n' roll? (take some rock 'n' roll)
Just take some rock 'n' roll (take some rock 'n' roll)
Oh, oh, take some! (take some rock 'n' roll)
Oh, I'm gonna take it! (take some rock 'n' roll)
Take some rock 'n' roll! (take some rock 'n' roll)
