Lyrics

[Chorus]
E5
  He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
He don't like his boring job, no...
He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
He don't like his boring job, no...

[Verse 1]
B5                           A5
  An' he knows what got to do
   B5                             E5
He knows he's gonna have fun with you
You lucky lady!
A5
  An' he knows when the evening comes
                                                  B5
When his job is done he'll be over in his car for you

[Chorus]
E5
  He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
He don't like his boring job, no...

[Verse 2]
B5
  An' in the intray lots of work
A5      B5                                E5
But the boss at the firm always thinks he shirks
B5 A5
     But he's just like everyone,
he's got a Ford Cortina
                            B5
That just won't run without fuel
Fill her up, Jacko!

[Chorus]
E5
  He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
He don't like his boring job, no...

[Verse 3]
B5                                   A5
  An' the invoice it don't quite fit,
B5                              E5
  No payola in his alphabetical file
B5 A5
     He's gonna really tell the boss
                                         B5
Gonna really let him know exactly how he feels
It's pretty bad!

[Chorus]
E5
  He's in love with rock'n'roll woaahh
He's in love with gettin' stoned woaahh
He's in love with Janie Jones
                                   D#5
He don't like his boring job, no...

[Outro]
