Rock ‘n Roll Women

 

Written: 1980

Writers: David Jenneson, Alan Hovden

Status: Unrecorded and unpublished.

Genre and Style Pop Rock

Comments: Dave: Rock ‘n Roll Women is an unassuming song about the wives and girlfriends who are left behind when a rock band goes on tour. It is one of those rare songs with a verse-chorus, where the verse and chorus are one and the same. This makes it extremely catchy. It would make a great sleeper album cut for an artist like Bonny Raitt.

Comments: Al: This song has always been a sleeper to me. With the right singer…

 

Rock ‘n Roll Women can

Never can, never can, never can

Go with their men

Rock ‘n roll women stay

Stay while their men travel far

In a rock ‘n roll band

 

Say goodbye again

Say goodbye again

My my my

They only try

Try and understand

 

Rock ‘n roll women sigh

Sigh as they quietly say goodbye

Waving their hands

Rock ‘n roll women say

They wish their men never played, never played

In a rock ‘n roll band

 

He’ll bring home to me some souvenir

A silver ring, just anything

I never fear

He says playing rock ‘n roll

Is no mistake

It gets him higher than any love he can make

 

Rock ‘n roll women can

Never can, never can, never can

Go with their men

Rock ‘n roll women stay

Stay while their men travel far

In a rock ‘n roll band

 

Say goodbye again

Say goodbye again

My my my

They only try

Try and understand
