[Verse 1]

Jerry Lee played mean rock 'n' roll

They say Robert Johnson sold his soul

Some fires you just can't control

Long live cool

[Verse 2]

Moonshine made a faster car

Muscle came and raised the bar

Some are born to speed like shootin' stars

Long live cool

[Chorus]

Wayward preachers lookin' for devils to fight

Tightrope walkers on the sharp end of the knife

Shinin' hope to all us broken lights

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Long live cool

[Verse 3]

It's the moves inside those blue suede shoes

And hurt behind the lovesick blues

A little untamed mixed with attitude

Long live cool

[Chorus]

Wayward preachers lookin' for devils to fight

Tightrope walkers on the sharp edge of the knife

Shinin' hope to all us broken lights

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Long live cool

[Interlude]

[Outro]

So run a needle through some old forty-five

Grab every gear in whatever kinda car you drive

Do what you got to do to keep that part of you alive

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright

Long live cool

Long live cool

Long live cool, yeah

Long live cool
