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 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
Gettin' late
I just can't wait
Ten o'clock
And I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink
Then I smoke
Start up 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
Everybody's gonna
move their feet
Everybody's gonna
leave their seat
