When I was young, up in my room
I always played my music loud, Big bam boom
My daddy yelled to me "turn the music down!"
It drove him mad, he said it with a frown
But no apology, that's the way it's meant to be
It needs to be loud and I'm happy
So take this as a lesson when you feel the same
It isn't our fault, rock n roll's to blame
When we're too loud, you're too old
It cannot be denied, the truth be told
When we're too loud, you're too old
But when you can't resist, you've been rocknrolled
Nowadays, when I'm on stage.
Young at heart, don't act your age
But once there was just a grumpy old guy
He yelled to me: "Volume is too high!"
No don't complain, I'm the one who's to blame
It needs to be loud and that's my aim
So take this as a lesson, put something in your ear
Let's raise a glass and drink some beer
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
When we're too loud, you're too old
It cannot be denied, the truth be told
When we're too loud, you're too old
But when you can't resist, you've been rocknrolled
When we're too loud, you're too old
It cannot be denied, the truth be told
When we're too loud, you're too old
But when you can't resist, you've been rocknrolled
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
When we're too loud, you're too old
It cannot be denied, the truth be told
When we're too loud, you're too old
But when you can't resist, you've been rocknrolled
When we're too loud, you're too old
It cannot be denied, the truth be told
When we're too loud, you're too old
But when you can't resist, you've been rocknrolled
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey!
