What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
Can't you tell that your tie's too wide?
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
Welcome back to the age of jive.
Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
You can't dress trashy till you spend a lot of money.
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
Can't you tell that it's out of style?
Should I get a set of white wall tires?
Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental.
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me.
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers
'Cause it's always been the same old scene.
There's a new band in town
But you can't get the sound from a story in a magazine...
Aimed at your average teen
How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
You could really be a Beau Brummell baby
If you just give it half a chance.
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers,
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers.
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
Don't you know that they're out of touch?
Should I try to be a straight 'A' student?
If you are then you think too much.
Don't you know about the new fashion honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money.
It's the next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock & roll to me.
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me

Review about It's Still Rock and Roll To Me Awsome Song | Reviewer: Scotty K | 9/15/09
I just downloaded both volumes of Billy Joels Greatest Hits, if you like this song, then you should defintly look at other songs Billy Joel has wrote, it wasn't until tonight that I realized how many songs Joel wrote that I have listened to on the Radio. I wasn't even alive when this guy was popular, but I think he should get another chance of being number one.
Ahem... AWESOME!! | Reviewer: Ann-Marie | 7/9/09
So this song is just so Awesome. My mom was an 80s lady, she graduated in 85'. I only got to live a little in the 80s. But my mom has always listened to Billy Joel (and AC/DC, and The Police.) And I fell in love with this song. Billy Joel is just so awesome. I just Heart 80s Music in general. YAY!!! And I am jealous if you can actually remember the 80s.
I absolutely Love This song | Reviewer: Emorly | 4/16/08
I first heard this song in Dance class a few years ago. We were doing it for our summer recital. The next March, I took it to a talent conpetition and won first place and sweepstakes (first of all first places)! i'm now taking it to another competition this summer. This song is the very song I wake up to this morning!!! I absolutley, entirely love this song!!!
i love this song i really dream metting him i want to ask him how he wrote this song it is interesting and cool at the same it is like the song i keep sining but i don't no y. i love love love this song. I LOVE BILLY JOEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i could only ever dream about writing songs this good.
i can hear what i'm writing in my head, but by the time i get anywhere near a piano, bass or guitar...well...it's gone.
sure as hell, though, if i could get something churning out of my instruments, it would be along these lines.
billy joel is still the man, and he still deserves to be on top. spread the word.
GO JOEL!
Awesome | Reviewer: Jay-Pet | 12/10/07
I first listened to this song after listening to Weird Al's, It's Still Billy Joel to me, and I decided to listen to the real one.
okay its a good song for someone that was brought up in that time of this kind of music but im only doind this for a project for my music class we are studying POP music of the mid and late 20th cen. but get e wrong it was good in its day and it still can if it would be played mor often bc some ppl would never have heard or known of this song.......unless you grew up listening to it!
its going to be the same thing some ppl like it some dont its just that there is new music out there in the world and new groups!

Wow | Reviewer: Vergil | 9/18/07
Good song... but wow. The comment just before this one contains THE worst assortment of poor grammer in existence. My eyes cried out in pain just taking a passing glance at it, let alone reading it. Honestly... dear God.
