FOR A ROCKER Lyrics

Open the door, baby turn on the light

We're gonna have a party tonight

For a rocker

For a rocker

I know it's late and you're already down

You ain't ready for people around

I'm gonna tell you something I found out

Whatever you think your life is about

Whatever life may hold in store

Things will happen that you won't be ready for

I've got a shirt so unbelievably bright

I'm gonna dig it out and wear it tonight

For a rocker

For a rocker

For a rocker

For a rocker

Don't have to change, don't have to be sweet

Gonna be too many people to possibly meet

Don't have to feed 'em, they don't eat

They've got their power supplies in the soles of their feet

They exist for one thing, and one thing only

To escape living the lives of the lonely

For a friend of mine, from the neighborhood

Moving down the line, after tonight he'll be gone for good

Here comes Ricky, Danny, and Doerge

They got Petie's number and they're looking at me

Russell and Bobby setting up the drums

Gonna pound on 'till the landlord comes

Don't want to argue, I don't want to fight

But there will definitely be a party tonight

For a rocker 

For a rocker

For a rocker 

For a rocker

'Till the morning comes, 'till the car arrives

'Till we kill the drums, 'till we lose our lives

Hey Jenny, tell Peggy Sue

We're gonna do the only thing you can do

For a rocker

For a rocker

For a rocker

For a rocker

There's a party tonight!

There's a party tonight!

There's a party tonight!

There's a party tonight!
