Rock 'n roll pioneer Jerry Lee Lewis has died at 87. The musician passed away on Wednesday, his publicist confirmed to Fox News Digital.
"He was there at the beginning, with Elvis, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Carl Perkins, Fats Domino, Buddy Holly, and the rest, and watched them fade away one by one till it was him alone to bear witness, and sing of the birth of rock ‘n’ roll," the release added.
"'Who would have thought,' he said, near the end of his days, ‘it would be me?’"
Over the years, Lewis struggled with drug and alcohol abuse, legal disputes and physical illness.
