[Verse 1]
The weekend comes to this town
Seven days too soon
For the ones who have to make up
What we break up of their rules
Well I saw Captain Kidd on Sunset
Tell his boys they're in command
While Chino danced a tango
With a broomstick in his hand
He said, "It's alright (alright) if you have a good time
It's alright (alright) if you want to cross that line
To break on through to the other side"

[Chorus]
Let it rock, let it go
You can't stop a fire burning out of control
Let it rock, let it go
With the night you're on the loose
You got to let it rock

[Verse 2]
We go down to the Broadway
Where everybody goes
To get on their rocking horse
And blast that radio
Well I saw Roxie on the table
Her girlfriend down below
They'll give it to the king of swing
Before it's time to go
They said "It's alright (alright) if you have a good time
It's alright (alright) if you want to cross that line
To break on through to the other side"

[Chorus]
