(Eric Carmen)

Well I was sixteen

And sick of school

I didn't know what I wanted to do

I bought a guitar

I got the fever

That's rock'n roll

I played at parties

Played in bars

I spent my money buyin' new guitars

I screamed my heart out

But how I loved it

That's rock'n roll

Well, come on everybody

Get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down, that's rock'n roll

It's when the smokin'

And the heat

Have got your heart pounding right with

The beat

Don't try to fight it

Just get excited

That's rock'n roll

Well it's the roadies

And the crowd

It's when the band's playin' way too loud

Your hips are shakin'

Ain't no mistakin'

That's rock'n roll

Well, come on everybody

Get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down, that's rock'n roll

Now don't you worry

'Bout bein' a star

It doesn't matter who or what you are

Just get the rhythm

And let it fill ya

That's rock'n roll

And if you feel it

Clap your hands

Let's see some sweat for the boys in the band

Now lemme hear ya

Lemme hear ya

That's rock'n roll

(Everybody) get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down and get with it

Come on everybody

Get down, that's rock'n roll
