Van morrison in the days before rock n roll lyrics

Justin, gentler than a man

I am down on my knees

At the wireless knobs

I am down on my knees

At those wireless knobs

Telefunken, Telefunken

And I'm searching for

Luxembourg, Luxembourg,

Athlone, Budapest, AFN,

Hilversum, Helvetia

In the days before rock 'n' roll 



In the days before rock 'n' roll

In the days before rock 'n' roll 



When we let, then we bet

On Lester Piggott when we met

We let the goldfish go 



In the days before rock 'n' roll 



Fats did not come in

Without those wireless knobs

Fats did not come in

Without those wireless knobs

Elvis did not come in

Without those wireless knobs

Nor Fats, nor Elvis

Nor Sonny, nor Lightning

Nor Muddy, nor John Lee 



In the days before rock 'n' roll

In the days before rock 'n' roll 



When we let and we bet

On Lester Piggott 101

And we let the goldfish go

Down the stream

Before rock 'n' roll

We went over the wavebands

We'd get Luxembourg,

Luxembourg and Athlone 



AFM stars of Jazz

Come in, come in, come in, Ray Charles

Come in, the high priest 



In the days before rock 'n' roll

In the days before rock 'n' roll 



When we let and we bet

On Lester Piggott 10 to 1

And we let the goldfish go

And then the killer came along

The killer, Jerry Lee Lewis

A whole lotta shakin' goin' on,

Great balls of fire

Little Richard 



Justin, gentler than a man

Justin, Justin, where is Justin now?

What's Justin doing now?

Just, where is Justin now?

Come aboard
