Rock it and roll!

You know it's easy to say
"Get out and go your own way,"
But baby, why don't you just stay all night?

You're such a sweet young roller skater
And I could easily see you later
If you'd just tell me that it's all right

Because you can make love for the first time
You can be yourself, it ain't no crime
You can walk around on such a fine line
Anything you want to, baby
That's all right with me
If that's the way you feel
It ain't no big deal

I am a rock 'n' roller
And if I get much older
They're gonna bury me with my guitar
I wanna live and believe
I wanna give and receive
And baby, you're the one that'll make me a star

Well now, you can walk around with trashy clothes on
And you can love a man and make him feel strong
You can numb yourself until the pain's gone
You can tag along and, baby
Nothin's wrong by me
If that's the way you feel
Ain't no big deal

I said oh when you tease me
I said oh baby, now you please me, please me!

Oh yeah

Well now, you can make love for the first time
You can be yourself, it ain't no crime
You can walk around on such a fine line
Anything you want to, baby
That's all right with me
If that's the way you feel
Ain't no big deal

I am a rock 'n' roller
And if I get much older
They're gonna bury me with my guitar
I wanna live and believe
I wanna give and receive
And baby, you're the one that'll make me a starI

Well now, you can make love for the first time
You can be yourself, it ain't no crime
You can walk around on such a fine line
Anything you want to, baby
That's all right with me
If that's the way you feel
It ain't no big deal
It ain't no big deal
Well, ain't no big deal

Ambrosia is a soft rock band from Los Angeles discovered in 1971 by Los Angeles Philharmonic conductor Zubin Mehta, who featured the group as part of an All-American Dream Concert (Pops concert). It took them another four years to get signed to a record contract.

Between 1975 and 1982, Ambrosia racked up five Grammy nominations, toured with Fleetwood Mac, Heart, and The Doobie Brothers, and scored five US top 40 hits including two top fives: “Biggest Part Of Me” and “How Much I Feel”.

The group split in 1982, but reunited in 1989 and has continued touring and releasing compilations of their old hits. In 2015, the group released a new single, “Hopes and Dreams”, which was featured in the Fox series The Sparrows.
