By Kris Kristofferson, Bob Neuwirth and Roger McGuinn  Do I look like a loser?  Do I stand in your way?  A threat to your future  You planned yesterday  Well, I fought for my freedom  Some called it a crime  Convicted of running  On rock and roll time    Chorus:  I said rock and roll time  Please take me away  To the whiskey and wine  Of some better day  And if sometimes it seems  I'm falling behind  Remember I'm running  On rock and roll time    I'm judged in your airports  Each time that I fly  I've been locked in your jailhouse  Oh, but I'm getting by  Just hoping that heaven  Is happy and high  And everyone's running  On rock and roll time    Chorus:  I said rock and roll time  Please take me away  To the whiskey and wine  Of some better day  And if sometimes it seems  I'm falling behind  Remember I'm running  On rock and roll time
