Lyrics:

It's time to lose the day
It's time to head to Beale
Where the rhythm is hot
And the music is real

You can do without love
Swear off the booze
But everyone alive
Needs to sing the blues
So time to raise some hell
And get on down

We goin' down, down
Underground
We goin' down, down, down
Just to hear that sound

We're gonna dance so close
Feel my breath on your skin
It ain't quite heaven
But the closest I been
We goin' down, down
Underground

First we heard it in church
Then we added some gin
Then we took it down here
And added soul to sin

We gonna jump and jive
Like a demon possessed
The devil's in the music
The music is blessed
We goin' down
Where paradise is found

We goin' down, down
Underground
We goin' down, down, down
Just to burn that sound

We gonna do some things
That you never dared
Ain't no white folks here
'Cause they too damn scared
We goin' down, down
Underground

My brother runs my life
My brother owns this bar
He won't let me be
Till he makes me a star

He gives me this mic
Makes me sing all I can
Just can't have no fun
Or talk to no man
Wanna paint the town
But with him, ain't no fooling around

We goin' down, down
Underground
We goin' down, down, down
Just to hear that sound

Gonna grope and grind
Hold on tight
Find true love
At least for tonight
We goin' down, down
Underground

It's a revolution of the heart and soul
It's here to stay, ain't never gonna go
It's a rebel cry that's outta control
It's the birth of rock and roll
Rock'n'roll, rock'n'roll, rock'n'roll

We goin' down, down
Underground
We goin' down, down, down
Gonna rock the sound

We're gonna dance and drink
Till the whiskey's all gone
And pray that the preacher
Forgives us at dawn
We goin' down, down
Underground

We goin' underground
(We goin' underground)
We goin' underground
(We goin' underground)
We goin' underground
