Rock and roll

'Rock and roll I gave you all the best years of my life ......' is the only line I can remember, but what is the title of the song and who sang it? I can hum the tune, but its not possible to type it up!! Thanks in advance.

Are these part of the lyrics anita, if so its mac davis
I can still remember when I bought my first guitar,
Remember just how good the feeling was, put it proudly in my car,
And my family listened fifty times to my two song repertoire,
And I told my mum her only son was gonna be a star.
Bought all the Beatle records,
sounded just like Paul,
Bought all the old Chuck Berry`s, 78`s and all,
And I sat by my record player, playin` every note they played,
And I watched them all on TV, makin every move they made.

Chorus:
Rock and roll, I gave you all the best years of my life,
All the dreamy sunny Sundays,
all the moon-lit summer nights,
I was so busy in the back room writin` love songs to you,
While you were changin` your direction,
and you never even knew,
That I was always,
just one step behind you.

Great song, written and performed (originally) by Aussie singer/songwriter Kevin Johnson.
