From the writer: gene pistilli.
Bette changed the title and lyric to record this song for the movie the rose. The song as written is:.
Give my soul to rock and roll.
Gypsy boots and diamond needles; plastic cups and silver spoons.
Empty beds and crowds of people; c'mon white girl sing the blues.
Honey, hold me like you love me; make it feel real good for free.
What if free don't mean for nothin'? Then let's just say this one on me.
Then you can -
Give my soul to rock and roll, make wings out of my chains.
And put 'em on some angel who can use 'em.
Give my soul to rock and roll and find another vein.
The one that goes to heaven straight from losin'.
