On Wisdom Hill by Jason Allen : Lyrics
 
 

Live On The Royalites
(Written by Jason Allen)

Rock 'n' roll is gonna save my soul
Six years we've been on the dole
Learn a new chord like some people clocking in
We're writing songs in the hope for something
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Rock 'n' roll is gonna save your soul
Write a new song and call it rock 'n' roll if you like
We know every new day brings a possibility
Write a hit tune and live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

My heart and soul - it saved rock 'n' roll
Found a new phrase, sang it all through the day
Man in a big car driving by likes what he hears
Signed up to a multi-album deal
I'm gonna be a slave for years...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

Live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
We'll live on the royalites
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Live on the royalites
Dine on the royalties
Make all the royalites
Pay 'em into my account now

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

"Another tune written in the presence of Dan Russell during one of our regular attempts to create a new album of songs in one night! This ended up being a song about writing songs. Not a lot different from the shelved 'Stantonbury Tales' version."
