Times are tough and times are strange But times one thing that you can't change Love is a noun and love is a verb And sometimes love is a dirty word It don't matter what tomorrow brings Tonight you just need to think about one thing And that's showing up and letting go And maybe getting just a little out of control and sing Whoa, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Gather up a couple of friends Let us shout, hit the spot And the party begin and sing Whoa, yeah, yeah, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Lose yourself out in the crowd In the night and the lights cut lose and loud Drown all the stressed up, pepped up, messed up out That's what I'm talking about Where the sun will shine and the clouds will rain Might have to learn to smile through the pain You lose a step but you gain a friend Might even get your break every now and then So don't sweat it, just let it slide And when you get on the road, baby, let it ride You gotta get up to get down You gotta unwind a little to come on round and sing Whoa, yeah, yeah, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Gather up a couple of friends Let us shout, hit the spot Let the party begin Whoa, yeah, yeah, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Lose yourself out in the crowd In the night and the lights cut lose and loud Drown all the messed up, pepped up, stressed up out That's what I'm talking about And when you get tired of trying to be Who they want you to be Be what you wanna be Well, come on, come on Whoa, yeah, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Gather up a couple of friends Let us shout at the spot And let the party begin Whoa, ho, ooh, oh, don't you just wanna rock and roll? Lose yourself out in the crowd In the night and the lights cut lose and loud Drown all the stressed up, messed up, pepped up out That's what I'm talking about Don't you just wanna rock and roll? Don't you just wanna rock and roll? Gather up a couple of friends, let the party begin Lose yourself out in the crowd Don't you just wanna rock and roll? Drown all the stressed up, messed up, pepped up out Whoa, don't you just wanna rock and roll?
