After 6 hours of school
I had enough for the day
I hit the radio dial
And turn it up all the way

CHORUS
I gotta dance
Right on the spot
The beats really hot
Dance
Dance
Dance yeah!

When i feel put down I try to shake it off quick
With my chick by my side
The radio does the trick

CHORUS

At the weekend dance
We like to show up last
I play it cool when it's slow
and jump it up when its fast

CHORUS x2 then fade out

. . .


(Break, break, shake away)
(Break, break away)
(I did what, did what I wanna do)

Time will not wait for me
Time is my destiny
Why change the part of me
that has to be free

The love that passed me by
I found no reason why
but now each day is filled with the love
that very same love
that passed me by
and that is why

I can break away
from that lonely life
And I can do what I wanna do (I did what, did what I wanna do)
And break away from that empty life
And my world is new

When I laid down on my bed
I heard voices in my head
Tellin' me now hey, it's only a dream

The more I thought of it
I had been out of it
And here's the answer I found instead (baby, baby)
Found out it was in my head (baby, baby)
Found out it was my head (baby, baby)
Found out it was in my head (baby, baby, baby)

And I can break away to the better life
Where the shackles never hold me down
I'm gonna make a way for each happy day
as my life turns around

Oh boy, you'd jump for joy (Come on with me to break away)
when you (Won't you come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to ride away)
Break away (Won't you come on with me to break away)
Break away (Come on with me to ride away)
Feel the vibration
It's an arming sensation (Break away)
Feel the vibration
It's an arming sensation (Break away)

. . .


One, two, three, four

Giddy up
Giddy up

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I ride a big white horse
(He rides from Texas on a big white horse)

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I ride a big white horse
(He rides from Texas on a big white horse)

Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah is that your horse?
(He rides from Texas on a big white horse)
Yeah

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I wear a ten gallon hat
(He rides from Texas with a ten gallon hat)

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I wear a ten gallon hat
(He rides from Texas with a ten gallon hat)

Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah is that your hat?
(He rides from Texas with a ten gallon hat)
Yeah

Well I was walkin' down the street
With my shinin' badge
My spurs jinglin' down at my feet
I seen a man a comin'
Comin' with a gun
And I just can't be beat

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I enforce justice for the law
(He rides from Texas to enforce the law)

Well I'm a long tall Texan
I enforce justice for the law
(He rides from Texas to enforce the law)

Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah are you the law?
(He rides from Texas to enforce the law)

We met when she was younger
Then I had no eyes for her
A few years went by and I saw her
Now I'm gonna try for her

Look out babe

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

How could I ever have known that
She'd be what she is today
And look at how her boyfriend holds her
I'll be moving in one day

Split man

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

La doo day pow pow pow
La doo day pow pow pow
La doo day pow pow pow

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once knew

Do you wanna dance and hold my hand
Tell me baby I'm your lover man
Oh baby, do you wanna dance

Do you wanna dance under the moonlight
Hold me baby all through the night
Oh baby, do you wanna dance

Do you do you do you do you wanna dance (x3)

Do you wanna dance under the moonlight
Kiss me baby all trough the night
Baby do you wanna dance

Do you wanna dance under the moonlight
Squeeze me squeeze me all trough the night
Oh, baby do you wanna dance

Do you do you do you do you wanna dance (x3)

Solo

Do you do you do you do you wanna dance (x3)

Do you do you do you do you wanna dance (x3)
fade

Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America

The Bonneville salt flats had seen some strange things
But the strangest thing yet was a jet without wings
Once as a jet it played in the stars
But now on the ground it's the king of our cars

Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America

An airplane an auto now famous worldwide
The Spirit of America, the name on the side
The man who would drive her Craig Breedlove by name
A daring young man played a dangerous game

Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America

With a J-47, a jet for his power
Craig Breedlove had averaged four-o-seven per hour
Both man and machine had given fair warn
They'd set a new record on that warm August morn.

Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America
Spirit of America

Rah rah pom pom play girl
Pom pom play girl

(Oooooo)
You see her in a short skirt down on the grass
SheÕs wonderinÕ if the teamÕs gonna run kick or pass
(Chi chi bah oooooo)
Since she doesnÕt really know why sheÕs wavinÕ her hands
SheÕs a-thinking Ôbout the boy sittinÕ up in the stands

Rah rah pom pom play girl
Pom pom play girl

(Chi chi bah)
Just a little social clique with the other song queens
With a freshman or a sophomore she wouldnÕt be seen
(Chi chi bah oooooo)
SheÕs a doll and she knows it and she thinks that her face
Will get her any body any thing and any place

Rah rah pom pom play girl
Pom pom play girl
Oooooo

Chi chi bah

(Oooooo)
Since sheÕs the head cheerleader she dates the quarterback
And her best friendÕs going out with the full back
(Chi chi bah oooooo)
She might even run for an office this Spring
And that ought to really make her telephone ring

Rah rah pom pom play girl
Pom pom play girl

(Chi chi bah pom pom play girl)
Wooooo
(Chi chi bah pom pom play girl)
Wooo
(Chi chi bah pom pom play girl)
Shake it

Wave those pom poms all around
(Chi chi bah pom pom play girl)

(Chi chi bah pom pom play girl)
Wow

We know they're right when they say we're not ready
But all we care is how we feel right now
We'll go ahead just the same
Prepare to take the blame
We'll run away and get married anyhow

They warned us that we can't live on love forever
But we just tell them we'll get by somehow
Our problems will be greater
We'll worry 'bout them later
We'll run away and get married anyhow

If other kids went through it
Then I know we can do it
If our love is that much stronger
It will last that much longer

It wasn't too long ago when our folks were
Were going through the same thing we are now
But one thing they're forgetting
A thing they're not regretting
They ran away and got married anyhow
(Ran away and got married)
Anyhow
(Ran away and got married)
They ran away and got married anyhow

Little Richard sang it
And Dick Clarke brought it to life
Danny and the Juniors
Hit a groove struck as sharp as the knife
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Chuck Berry's gotta be
The greatest thing that came along
He made the guitar beats
And wrote the all time greatest song
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Elvis Presley is the King
He's the giant of the day
Paved the way for the rock'n'roll star

Yeah the critics kept a knockin'
But the stars kept a rockin'
And the choppin' didn't get very far
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

Well nothin's really happenin'
'Till the saxophones ready to blow
And the beat's not jumpin'
'Till the drummer says he's ready to go
Well now do you remember
All the guys that gave us rock'n'roll

Let's hear the high voice wail (oo-oo-oo-oo)
And here the voice down low (ah-ah ah-ah)
Let's hear the background
(Um-didi-wada um-didi-wada um-didi-wada um-didi-wada)

They gave us rock'n'roll
They gave us rock'n'roll
They gave us rock'n'roll

This car of mine
A-win I got (bought) her now she wasnÕt new
Old and broke down
This car of mine
ThereÕs been a lot of races we been through
No slow poke now

I never want to part with her you see
This little car means a heck of a lot to me

(This car of mine, oooooo)
I remember the day
A-when I chose her over all those old broken junkers
Thought I could tell
Underneath a coat of rust she was gold
No clunker

Just couldnÕt wait to take her home with me
And fix her up just as new as she could be
(This car of mine, this car of mine, this car of mine, this car of mine,
oooooo)
AinÕt no amount of gold any mine
Would be enough to take away this car of mine
(This car of mine, dit til lee hup hup)
This car of mine
(Dit til lee hup hup dit til lee hup hup)
Oh his car of mine
(Dit til lee hup hup dit til lee hup hup)
SheÕs so so fine now
(Dit til lee hup hup dit til lee hup hup)
This car, this car so fine now
(Dit til lee hup hup dit til lee hup hup)
Mmm sheÕs so fine...

. . .


Now here we are together
This would've been worth waiting forever
I always knew it'd feel this way

And please forgive my shaking
Can't you tell my heart is breaking?
Can't make myself say what I planned to say

Baby
Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

I built all my goals around you
That some day my love would surround you
You'll never know what we've been through

For so long I thought about it
And now I just can't live without it
This beautiful image I have of you

Baby
Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

Please let me wonder
(If I've been the one you love)
Please let me wonder
(If I'm who you're dreaming of)
Please let me wonder, love

I love you


. . .


You're so sleepy
Wish that he could stay
Love him so
But now it's getting late
He'll be waiting
Waiting just for you
One more summer
And your dream comes true

. . .

Shut Down, Part II

Keep an eye on Summer this year
Keep an eye on Summer
Keep an eye on

We said goodbye last September
Your words I still can hear
Keep an eye on Summer this ahh haaa ahhhh (Summer)
(Keep an eye on)
Those things I say in my letters
You'll find them most sincere
Keep an eye on Summer this year-ear-ear

Soon we'll be graduating
And we'll be so far apart
And though you could be dating
I'm waiting and waiting

And as we look at the future
Though it be through a tear
Keep an eye on Summer this (year)ahh haaa ahhhh
(Keep an eye on Summer)
(Keep an eye on)
Ahhh haaaa ahhhh
(Keep an eye on Summer)
(Keep an eye on)
Ahhh haaaa ahhhh

She knows me
She knows me

Sometimes I have a weird way of showing my love
And I always expect her to know what I'm thinking of

She knows me

I treat her so mean I don't deserve what I have
And I think that she'll forgive just by making her laugh
But she knows me

She knows me too well
Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her
She knows me too well

I get so jealous of the other guy
And then I'm not happy til I make her break down and cry
When I look at other girls it must kill her inside
But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys
But she knows me

She knows me too well
Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her
She knows me too well

She knows me
She knows me

When I look at other girls it must kill her inside
But it'd be another story if she looked at the guys
Cause she knows me

Knows me so well
That she can tell
I really love her
She knows me too well

Go cherry, cherry coupe now

The wildest short around is my cherry, cherry coupe
It's the sharpest thing in town and the envy of my group
It's one of its kind and it really looks good
Chopped nose and deck with louvers on the hood

Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(My cherry coupe beats 'em up coming off the line)
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(And she really gets sparks when she starts to whine)

Chrome reversed rims with whitewall slicks
And it turns a quarter mile in one oh six
Door handles are off but you know I'll never miss 'em
They open when I want with the solenoid system

Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(My cherry coupe beats 'em up coming off the line)
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(And she really gets sparks when she starts to whine)

My coupe's tuck and roll underneath the hood
And the rugs, seats, and panels now are looking good
When I go looking for something to do
She's got enough room now to barely seat two

Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(My cherry coupe beats 'em up coming off the line)
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(And she really gets sparks when she starts to whine)

Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(My cherry coupe beats 'em up coming off the line)
Go cherry, cherry coupe now
(And she really gets sparks when she starts to whine)

When I grow up to be a man

Will I dig the same things
That turned me on as a kid?
Will I look back and say that
I wish I hadn't done what I did?

Will I joke around
And still take both sides?
When I grow up to be a man?

Will I look for the same things
In a woman that I dig in a girl?
Will I settle down fast
Or will I first wanna travel the world?

Now I'm young and free
But how will it be?
When I grow up to be a man

Ooooo Ooooo Ooooo

Will my kids be proud
Or think their old man's really a square?
When they're out having fun, yeah
Will I still wanna have my share

Will I love my wife
For the rest of my life
When I grow up to be a man?

What will I be when I grow up to be a man?
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever
It's kinda sad
Won't last forever
