When I drove into that parking lot   For the first time peepers round was on the dot   By the stink of that cop, ain't got a lot   Well we were lookin' for a place to play      We high-tailed over to one-eyed Jack   With a cheap guitar strung over my back   Well I looked pretty nervous, I can't turn back   This guy was everything the driver said, yeah      Well we were all right   We're gonna rock and roll tonight   Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine   Or mess around with the big red light   Well it was all right   We gotta rock and roll tonight   And Bun E's on the ground   Goin' round and round   'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight      Well lazy Jack, doesn't move too well   Play it back real loud, a real rebel yell   Buy a rock and roll record and make it sell   I'm gonna make it to the top today   Now I got pulled in some big demand   And they all keep telling me be a one-man band   Unless I get big stuff and a real cool band   And boy you gotta hear me play, yeah      Well we were all right   We're gonna rock and roll tonight   Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine   Or mess around with the big red light   Well it was all right   We gotta rock and roll tonight   And Bun E's on the ground   Goin' round and round   'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight      Well they heard some sounds in the songs we wrote   Welcome back by paying you note for note   Been a long time playin' that rock and roll   Not a thing's gonna touch me now      Gonna rock your town if anybody could   Drive a big limousine down to Hollywood   Even bought a nice home in your neighborhood   But we have to keep the curtains drawn   Yeah, yeah, yeah      Well we were all right   We're gonna rock and roll tonight   Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine   Or mess around with the big red light   Well it was all right   We gotta rock and roll tonight   And Bun E's on the ground   Goin' round and round   'Cause his baby's got her jeans too tight      We were all right   We're gonna rock and roll tonight, rock and roll tonight   And Bun E's on the ground   Goin' round and round   'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight
