Whoo, hello
I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o'clock, the radio's the only light
I hear my song, it pulls me through
It comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
I got to
Get up
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody's gonna leave their seat
You gotta lose your mind in Detroit rock city
Chorus
Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down, everybody's gonna leave their seat
Getting late
I just can't wait
Ten o'clock you know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start up the car, try to make the midnight show, let's go
Repeat Chorus
Movin' fast, doin' 95
I hit top speed, still movin' much too slow
I feel so good, so alive, I'm so alive
I hear my song playin' on the radio, it goes
Repeat Chorus
Twelve o'clock, I gotta, gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh I know I'm gonna die, why
Get up, everybody's gonna move their feet
Get up, everybody's gonna leave their seat
Chorus
I'm the king of the night time world
And you're my headlight queen

Far from the house and the family fights
It's so fine, bein' with you
Bein' with me makes everything alright

Trained to reign as the one
Chorus

Can't do it any other way
Everybody's got to rock and roll, oh, ooh, oh, ooh
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud, yeah, yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
