Lyrics

It was a rock and roll wedding
Held down at a rock and roll shack
Well the groom wore boots and leather
Let me tell you that the bride she wore black
Electric guitars cranked up real loud and good
And the people next door said
"There goes the neighborhood"

Black and white cars parked all the way around the block
They had the music, it was crakin'
Man, I did not think it would stop
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should
And the people next door said
"There goes the neighborhood"

Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Well the preacher drove up in a harley all dressed in chrome
And the bride and groom said "welcome to our happy home"
You know the vows were said and everybody kissed the bride
And the people next door were lookin' for a place to hide

Then the party really started and it lasted throughout the night
A lot of people got it right and the others just wanted to fight
Got as hot as the flames across a hot rod hood
And the people next door said
"There goes the neighborhood"

Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should
Chorus:
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Oh, no, there goes the neighborhood
Rockin' and rollin' like everybody knows they should
