I feel up tight 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 gotta 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
(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 and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start the car and I try to make the midnight show
(Get up!)
Everybody's gonna move their feet
(Get down!)
Everybody's gonna leave their seat
Movin' fast, down 95
Hit top speed but I'm still movin' much too slow
I feel so good, I'm so alive
I hear my song playin' on the radio
It goes
(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
Twelve o'clock, I gotta rock
There's a truck ahead, lights starin' at my eyes
Oh my god, no time to turn
I got to laugh 'cause I know I'm gonna die!
Why?
(Get up!)
Everybody's gonna move their feet
(Get down!)
(Get up!)
Everybody's gonna leave their seat
(Get down!)
