ELO Album

[No lyrics]

She cried to the southern wind
About a love that was sure to end
Every dream in her heart was gone
Headin' for a Showdown

Bad dreamer, what's your name
Looks like we're ridin' on the same train
Looks as though there'll be more pain
There's gonna be a Showdown

And it's rainin' all over the world
Its raining all over the world
Tonight, the longest night

She came to me like a friend
She blew in on a southern wind
Now my heart is turned to stone again
There's gonna be a Showdown

Save me, oh save me
It's unreal the suffering

There's gonna be a Showdown

And it's rainin' all over the world
It's raining all over the world
Tonight, the longest night

Gotta good reason
Were taking the easy way out
Gotta good reason
Were taking the easy way out

She was a daytripper, one way ticket, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

Tried to please her
She only played when I can
Tried to please her
She only played when I can

She was a daytripper, one way ticket, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

She was a teaser
She took me half the way there
She was a teaser
She took me half the way there

She was a daytripper, Sunday Driver, yeah
Took me so long to find out, I found out

Daytripper, One day for you, yeah
It took me so long to find, I found out

Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah
Daytripper, yeah

Did you see your friend crying from his eyes today?
Did you see him run through the streets and far away?
Aah
Did you see him run, did you see him fall?
Did his life flash by at the bedroom door?

Did you hear the news it came across the air today?
Someone has been found on the rocks down in the bay
Ahhh
Did you see him hide, did you see him crawl?
Does his life mean more than it did before?

Did you see that man running through the streets today?
Did you catch his face, was it 10538?
Ahhhh

Gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my local D.J.
It's a jumping little record I want my jockey to play
Roll Over Beethoven
Gotta hear it again today.

My temperature's rising, need a shot of rhythm & blues
Well, my heart's beating a rhythm, shakin' out rhythm & blues
Roll Over Beethoven
They're rocking in two by two.

CHORUS
Well, if you feel you like it
Go get your lover and reel and rock it
Roll it over and move on up now
Go for cover and reel and rock it
Roll it over
Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news.

Early in the morning I'm giving you my warning
Don't you step on my blue suede shoes
Hey, diddle diddle, gonna play my fiddle
I ain't got nothing to lose
Roll Over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky the news.

She wiggles like a glow worm, dances like a spinning top
She got a crazy partner, you should of seen her reel & rock
Long as she got a dime
The music will never stop.

REPEAT CHORUS

Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven, Roll Over Beethoven
Roll Over Beethoven, dig these rhythm & blues?
