According to the Rock and Roll Songfacts, as the title suggests, the song is based on one of the most popular structures in Rock And Roll; namely, the 12 bar blues progression (in A). The phrase "Rock and Roll" was a term Blues musicians used, which meant sex.

Rock and Roll
by Led Zeppelin
It's been a long time since I rock and rolled
It's been a long time since I did the Stroll
Oh let me get it back let me get it back
Let me get it back baby where I come from
It's been a long time been a long time
Been a long lonely lonely lonely lonely lonely time
Yes it has
It's been a long time since the book of love
I can't count the tears of a life with no love
Carry me back carry me back
Carry me back, baby, where I come from
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Seems so long since we walked in the moonlight
Making vows that just can't work right
Open your arms, opens your arms
Open your arms, baby, let my love come running in
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
It's been a long time, been a long time
Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time

The words "this video' appear more than 300 times in the comments section...
But there is no video, just a picture and a sound track.
I'm guessing most people are dancin' around the room so much they haven't noticed.

@MiketheYung God that would be true if the image moved in any way but it doesn't so it's just a picture with sound
