Rock & Roll Found MeEric Church

Songwriter: Driver Williams Casey Beathard Eric Church

Producer: Jay Joyce

I was a skinny little white kid
Wrong side of the track kid
Don’t do that kid
What the hell is wrong with him kid
No my rebel never run,and my damn gave one
I was just a boulder on a shoulder in a cul-de-sac dead-end street
And rock and roll found me

Like my faith, like my church
My low like my high
The better in my worse
Come on baby “Light My Fire”
Like a needle in my vein
The crazy in my sane
I turned on my amps and all at once my blind could see
Yeah when rock and roll found me

I was a nowhere new town
Do what your daddy do town
Don’t dream big town
Born to get outta this town, town
So I went looking for a reason
Hunting outta season
Crashed into some freedom
On a levee at a break neck speed
When rock and roll found me

Like my faith, like my church
My low like my high
The better in my worse
Come on baby “Light My Fire”
Like a needle in my vein
The crazy in my sane
I turned on my amps and all at once my blind could see
Yeah when rock and roll found me

I was a laid-back caddy, rolling cool through the alley, heading for disaster
When a black man’s guitar stopped me at the edge
And sang Billy Jo McAlister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge

Like my faith, like my church
My low like my high
The better in my worse
Come on baby “Light My Fire”
Like a needle in my vein
The crazy in my sane
I turned on my amps and all at once my blind could see
Yeah when rock and roll found me

I was a skinny little white kid
Wrong side of the track kid
No don’t do that kid
When rock and roll found me
When rock and roll found me
Yeah ,rock and roll found me
Rock and roll found me

Eric Church

Eric Church is an American country music singer-songwriter from Granite Falls, North Carolina. After graduating from Appalachian State University with a business degree in 2000, Eric became engaged to a Spanish teacher from Lenior, NC whose father attempted to deter his musical aspirations by offering him a corporate career in Denver. After turning down her father’s offer, Church’s ex-fiance broke the engagement, giving Church motivation to move to Nashville and begin focusing solely on his music. Recollections of this turning point in Church’s life are heard throughout his lyrical portfolio (most prominently in “Those I’ve Loved”).

After a period of being overlooked by record labels and producers, Church was eventually signed to Capitol Records in 2006, making his debut with the album, Sinners Like Me. The album produced four singles on the Billboard Country Chart, “How ‘Bout You,” “Two Pink Lines,” “Guys Like Me,” and the album’s title track.

His second album, 2009’s Carolina, produced three more “Smoke a Little Smoke,” “Love Your Love the Most,” and “Hell on the Heart.”
