1. ROCK THIS TOWN

Well, My baby and me went out late Saturday night
I had my hair piled high and my baby just looked so right
Well, pick you up at ten, gotta have you home at two
Mama don't know what I catched off of you
But that's all right cause we're looking as cool as can be

Well, we found a little place that really didn't lood half Bad
I had a whisky on the rocks
And change of a dollar for the jukebox
Well, I put the cold rock into that can
But all they played was disco, man
Come on, baby, baby, let's get out of here right away

We're gonna rock this town
Rock it inside out
We're gonna rock this town
Make'em scream and shout
Let's rock, rock, rock, man, rock
We're gonna rock till you pop
We're gonna rock till you drop
We're gonna rock this town
Rock it inside out

Well, we're having a ball just 'a bopping on the big dance floor
Well, there's a real square cat, he looks a 1974
Well, he looked at me once, he looked at me twice
Look at me again and there's gonna be fight
We're gonna rock this town
We're gonna rip this place apart

We're gonna rock this town
Rock it inside out
We're gonna rock this town
Make'em scream and shout
Let's rock, rock, rock, man, rock
We're gonna rock till you pop
We're gonna rock till you drop
We're gonna rock this town
Rock this place apart



2. CAN'T HURRY LOVE

I need love, love to ease my mind
I need to find, find someone to call mine

Well, my mama said, "You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

Rock

You know love, love don't come easy
Yet, I keep on waiting, anticipating
For that soft voice to talk to me at night
For those tender arms, wrapped around me tight

And my mama said, "You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

How long can I wait
How much more can I take
Before loneliness will
Cause my heart, heart to break

Now I can't stand, to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a lover, to call my own
Well I feel that I, oh, I can't go on
But those precious words, keep me hangin' on

Well, my mama said, "You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

"You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

Rock

You know love, love don't come easy
Yet, I keep on waiting, anticipating
For that soft voice to talk to me at night
For those tender arms, wrapped around me tight

Well, my mama said, "You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

How long can I wait?
How much more can I take?
Before loneliness will
Cause my heart, heart to break

Well, how many heartaches must I stand
Before I find a love to let me live again
Well, now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
Those precious words keep me hanging on

Well, my mama said, "You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

"You can't hurry love
No you just have to wait
Love don't come easy
It's a game of give and take"

Rock
