Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you gotta take my rock and roll
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you gotta take my rock and roll

Tune my mind to the station radio
My baby told me he ain't comin' back no mo'
Romeo, don't you know
You steal my pride and go

Turned me on from he old matrimonial blow
He's so stiff even music couldn't make him go
Your batteries are running low
And I ain't stayin', no, no, no

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you gotta take my rock and roll
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But you gotta take my rock and roll

We're alone tonight and you've done let me go
I need some man to tease before I get too old
You're movin' way to slow
So on your feet and go
