Detroit Rock City (Live) Lyrics

Go!

[Verse 1]
I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o'clock, the radio's the only light
I hear my song and it pulls me through
Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
I got to

[Chorus]
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
Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

[Verse 2]
Getting late, I just can't wait
Ten o'clock, and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke - dope
Start the car, try to make the midnight show

[Chorus]
Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

Get up!
Get down!

[Verse 3]
Moving fast, down 95
Hit top speed, I'm still moving much too slow
I feel so good, I'm so fucking high
Hear my song playing on the radio
It goes

[Chorus]
Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get down!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat

[Solo]

[Verse 4]
Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights staring at my eyes
Oh my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die
Why?

[Chorus]
Get up!
Everybody's gonna move their feet
Get up!
Everybody's gonna leave their seat
Get up!

Get up!
Get down!
Ahh!
