Текст песни Arrows - I Love Rock N Roll с транскрипцией

I saw her dancing there by the record machine
[ˈaɪ ˈsɔ: hə ˈdɑ:nsɪŋ ðə baɪ ðə rekɔ:d məˈʃi:n]
 
I knew she must have been about seventeen
[ˈaɪ nju: ʃi məst həv bi:n əˈbaʊt ˌsevnˈti:n]
 
The beat was going strong, playing my favourite song
[ðə bi:t wəz ˈɡəʊɪŋ strɒŋ, ˈpleɪɪŋ maɪ ˈfeɪvərɪt sɒŋ]
 
And I could tell it wouldn't be long
[ənd ˈaɪ kəd tel ɪt ˈwʊdnt bi ˈlɒŋ]
 
'Till she was with me
[tɪl ʃi wəz wɪð mi:]
 
And I could tell it wouldn't be long
[ənd ˈaɪ kəd tel ɪt ˈwʊdnt bi ˈlɒŋ]
 
‘Till she was with me
[tɪl ʃi wəz wɪð mi:]
 
Singing
[ˈsɪŋɪŋ]
 
I love rock n' roll
[ˈaɪ lʌv rɒk ənd rəʊl]
 
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
[ˈsəʊ ˈpʊt əˈnʌðə daɪm ɪn ðə ˈdʒu:kbɒks, ˈbeɪbi]
 
I love rock n' roll
[ˈaɪ lʌv rɒk ənd rəʊl]
 
So come on take your time and dance with me
[ˈsəʊ kʌm ɒn teɪk jə ˈtaɪm ənd dɑ:ns wɪð mi:]
 
She smiled, so I got up and asked for her name
[ʃi smaɪld, ˈsəʊ ˈaɪ ˈɡɒt ʌp ənd ˈɑ:skt fə hə ˈneɪm]
 
"That don't matter," she said, "'cause it's all the same"
[ðət dəʊnt ˈmætə, ʃi ˈsed, kɔ:z ɪts ɔ:l ðə ˈseɪm]
 
I said, "Can I take you home where we can be alone?"
[ˈaɪ ˈsed, kən ˈaɪ teɪk ju həʊm weə wi kən bi əˈləʊn]
 
Next we were moving on
[nekst wi wə ˈmu:vɪŋ ɒn]
 
And she was with me
[ənd ʃi wəz wɪð mi:]
 
Next we were moving on
[nekst wi wə ˈmu:vɪŋ ɒn]
 
And she was with me
[ənd ʃi wəz wɪð mi:]
 
Singing
[ˈsɪŋɪŋ]
 
I love rock n' roll
[ˈaɪ lʌv rɒk ənd rəʊl]
 
So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
[ˈsəʊ ˈpʊt əˈnʌðə daɪm ɪn ðə ˈdʒu:kbɒks, ˈbeɪbi]
 
I love rock n' roll
[ˈaɪ lʌv rɒk ənd rəʊl]

[ˈaɪ ˈsed, kən ˈaɪ teɪk ju həʊm weə wi kən bi əˈləʊn]
 
Next we were moving on
[nekst wi wə ˈmu:vɪŋ ɒn]
 
And she was with me
[ənd ʃi wəz wɪð mi:]
 
And we were moving on and singing that same old song
[ənd wi wə ˈmu:vɪŋ ɒn ənd ˈsɪŋɪŋ ðət seɪm əʊld sɒŋ]
