I came out to the West coast
Sunny girls walking golden shores
Just wanted to play some music
And get my face on a Sunset billboard

But it’s been two years now
And nothing’s in sight
And there’s one thing I know
That it’ll be alright tonight*

Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All through the night, tonight
Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All though the night

I know it’s a town of broken dreams
And I’ve had my share
But in the end it always seems
You were waiting there

And when I sing the song
Of when we had it made
I can almost see that house
Up on Malibu way

No my daddy don’t like me*
I make no money with my rock n roll band
He says “Hey I believe you’re writing”*
But he don’t know what’s real
Cause I’m doing the best I can
And he ain’t seen your face in the night

Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All through the night, tonight
Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All through the night

Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All through the night, tonight
Gonna rock and roll and hold you
All though the night
