I dig rock and roll music
And I love to get the chance to play (and sing it)
I figure its about the happiest sound goin down today

The message may not move me,
Or mean a great deal to me,
But hey! it feels so groovy to say:
I dig the mamas and the papas at the trip,
Sunset strip in la
And they got a good thing goin
When the words dont get in the way
And when theyre really wailing,
Michelle and cass are sailin
Hey! they really nail me to the wall

I dig donovan in a dream-like, tripped out way
His crystal images tell you bout a brighter day
And when the beatles tell you
Theyve got a word love to sell you
They mean exactly what they say

I dig rock and roll music
I could really get it on in that scene
I think I could say somethin if you know what I mean
But if I really say it, the radio wont play it
Unless I lay it between the lines
