Lyrics:

[Danny]
Well this car is automatic, it's systematic, it's hydromatic
Why it's greased lightnin'!
Grease-eee greased lightnin'!
Grease-eee greased lightnin'!
Grease-eee greased lightnin'!
Greased lightnin'!
I got chills
They're multiplyin'
And I'm losin' control
Cause the power
You're supplyin'
It's electrifyin'!

[Sandy]
You better shape up (tu, tu, tu)
Cause I need a man (tu, tu, tu, tu, tu)
And my heart is set on you (and my heart is set on you)
You better shape up (tu, tu, tu)
You better understand (tu, tu, tu, tu, tu)
To my heart I must be true (tu, tu, tu)

[Danny]
Nothin' left, nothin' left for me to do

[Both]
You're the one that I want
(you are the one I want),o ,o ,oo , honey
The one that I want
(you are the one I want),o ,o ,oo , honey
The one that I want
You,(you are the one I want),o ,o , ooooo
The one I need (one I need)
Oh, yes indeed

[Danny]
Why it's greased lightnin'!
(Greased lightnin'!)

[Danny/Guys]
We'll get some overhead lifters, and some four barrel quads, oh yeah
Keep talkin', whoah keep talkin'
Fuel injection cut off, and chrome plated rods, oh yeah
I'll get the money, I'll kill to get the money
With a four-speed on the floor, they'll be waitin' at the door
You know that I ain't braggin', she's a real pussy wagon-greased lightnin' (go go go go)

[Chorus: Danny/Guys]
Go, greased lightnin', you're burnin' up the quarter mile (gooooooooooo)
Greased lightnin', go greased lightnin'
Go, greased lightnin', you're coastin' through the heat lap trials (gooooooooooo)
Greased lightnin', go greased lightnin'
You are supreme, the chicks'll cream for greased lightnin' (oh, oh, go, go, go, go, go)

[Danny/Guys]
We'll get some purple French tail lights and thirty-inch fins, oh yeah (uuuuuuuh uu uh)
A palomino dashboard and duel muffler twins, oh yeah (uuuuuuuh uu uh)
With new pistons, plugs, and shocks, I can get off my rocks(aaaah, aaaah, aaaaah)
You know that I ain't braggin', she's a real pussy wagon - greased lightnin (go, go, uuuh uu uh)

[Danny]
Summer lovin', had me a blast

[Sandy]
Summer lovin', happened so fast

[Danny]
I met a girl crazy for me

[Sandy]
Met a boy cute as can be

[Both]
Summer days drifting away, to uh-oh those summer nights

[All]
O well-a well-a well-a huh

[Guys/Thunderbirds]
Tell me more, tell me more

[Guys/Doody]
Did you get very far?

[Girls/Pink Ladies]
Tell me more, tell me more

[Girls/Marty]
Like does he have a car?

[Girls/Guys]
A ha, t-du, a ha, t-du, a ha, tu-ruutum, a ha

[Danny]
She swam by me, she got a cramp (a ha, t-du, a ha, t-du)

[Sandy]
He ran by me, got my suit damp (a ha, t-du, a ha, t-du)

[Danny]
I saved her life, she nearly drowned (a ha, t-du, a ha, t-du)

[Sandy]
He showed off, splashing around (wa-pa-pa, wa-pa-pa)

[Both]
Summer sun, something's begun, but uh-oh those summer nights (o well-a well-a well-a huh)

[Girls/Pink Ladies]
Tell me more, tell me more

[Girls/Frenchy]
Was it love at first sight?

[Guys/Thunderbirds]
Tell me more, tell me more

[Guys/Kenickie]
Did she put up a fight?

[Sandy]
It turned colder - that's where it ends (tu du, tu du)

[Danny]
So I told her we'd still be friends (tu du, tu du)

[Sandy]
Then we made our true love vow

[Danny]
Wonder what she's doing now

[Both]
Summer dreams ripped at the seams
But, oh those summer nights (tell me more, tell me more, more)
