I've Sold My Soul
Rock'n'Roll Liberation: Embracing Freedom in Electric Sounds
Lyrics
When night falls and I feel so wild
Expressing a desire for excitement and rebellion when night arrives.
I wanna hear the sound of the electric guitar
Yearning to hear the energizing sound of an electric guitar.
I've got my rules, I'm not kid in denial
Asserting adherence to personal rules, not denying the reality of adulthood.
It was the best thing I've felt so far
Describing a positive, intense experience as the best felt so far.
I gonna tell you how it set me free
Intending to share the liberating impact of an experience.
I wanna roll and let it be
Expressing a desire to go with the flow and accept things as they are.
I've sold my soul, I've sold for rock'n'roll
Declaring a commitment to rock'n'roll, symbolically suggesting a deep connection.
Mama said that I was so wild
Recalling a past comment from the mother about being wild.
I told her ""I'm not your child""
Rejecting the maternal perception and asserting independence.
I've sold my soul, I've sold for rock'n'roll
Reiterating the dedication to rock'n'roll and selling one's soul for it.
I've got my bills and I gotta pay my dues
Acknowledging responsibilities and financial obligations.
I'm short of money but I'm no like you.
Differentiating oneself from others in handling financial constraints.
I won't give up this sound keep me alive
Committing to the music as a source of vitality despite economic challenges.
I’ve got no job at twenty-five
Stating unemployment at the age of twenty-five, highlighting a struggle.
I gonna tell you how it set me free
Continuing to share the transformative impact of an experience.
I wanna roll and let it be
Expressing a desire for spontaneity and acceptance of circumstances.
I've sold my soul, I've sold for rock'n'roll
Affirming the commitment to rock'n'roll and the symbolic soul-selling.
Mama said that I was so wild
Recalling the mother's remark about wild behavior.
I told her ""I'm not your child""
Rejecting the maternal label, reasserting independence.
I've sold my soul, I've sold for rock'n'roll
Reiterating the dedication to rock'n'roll and selling one's soul for it.
