Music: Rudolf Schenker
Lyrics: Klaus Meine

I remember when my teacher said:
"How you wanna make your life?"
I said: "I can play guitar
And it will be alright listen!"

When I came out of school
They said: "Which way you wanna go?"
But there was no way strong enough
Compared with rock'n roll
To get the same thrill

Anyhow I've found a job
They tried to break me with their rules
But they had no chance at all
'Cause I knew what to do
To get the same thrill like rock'n roll

I had a feeling they couldn't buy
Still got that feeling they still can't buy,
they still can't buy,
they still can't buy

Tell me the alternative
To what I'm doing, but I guess
There's no other way of life
Which is strong like this
To get the same thrill like rock'n roll
