This song was recently covered by Presidents of The United States of America, and originally
released by Ian Hunter in 1979 on his You're Never Alone With A Schizophrenic album.

I would love to have the lyrics !!!!!

Thanks in advance...

BTW, I would also love to learn how to fish myself, rather than bumming lyrics from other
people....can anyone suggest a good place to start when searching for song lyrics?

(Original Lyrics)
Cleveland Rocks

Ahhhhhh...
All this energy callin' me
Back where it comes from
It's such a crude attitude
It's back where it belongs

All the little kids growing up on the skids
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Jumpin' Jene Jene and Movin' James Dean
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"

Mamma knows but she don't care
She's got her worries too
Seven kids and a phoneo player
And the rent too

All the little chicks with their chrimson lips
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
Livin' in sin with a safety pin
Go "Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"
"Cleveland rocks!", "Cleveland rocks!"

I've got some records from World War II
I play 'em just like me grandad do
He was a rocker and I am too
Go "Cleeeveland rocks!"
"Yeah Cleeeveland rocks!"

Cleveland rocks!, Cleveland rocks!

If it's a reasonably popular, current band (Liable to have a fan site;
PUSA fits) I try at www.ubl.com first. They have links to fan / lyric
sites.

If it's "Top 40" from 1930 to present day, I try Lyrics World first:
