Peter Paul and Mary, I Dig Rock 'n Roll Music

Song Lyrics:

I dig Rock and Roll music,
And I love to get the chance to play,
(And sing it.)
I figure it's about the happiest,
Sound goin' down today.

The message may not move me,
Or mean a great deal to me,
But hey! It feels so groovy to say,
"I dig the Mamas and the Papas
At 'The Trip, Sunset Strip in L.A.
And they got (they got) a good thing goin',
When the words don't get in the way, yeah.
And when they're really wailin',
Michelle and Cass are sailin'.
Hey! They really nail me to the wall, yeah.

Donovan can defend the dream-like,
Tripped out way.
His crystal images, hey, they tell you,
'Bout a brighter day.

And when the Beatles tell you,
(Beatles tell you.)
They've got a word, "Love," to sell you,
(All ahead, love.)
They mean exactly (exactly) what they say.

I dig (ho-ho) Rock and Roll music,
I could really get it on in that scene.
I think I could say somethin',
If you know what I mean.
But if I really say it,
The radio won't play it.
Unless I lay it between the lines.

Doesnt Mary's dancing remind you of Elaine's "bad dancing" on Seinfeld???

[krezzykrezz]

What show? What year? Great tune! I've noticed that in each live performance of this song found on You Tube PP&M improvised to make it just a bit different. Tremendous!

[Planktontwo]
