Well it's Friday nite and the streets
Are full of the weekenders with their green
Soldier boys looking left and right
At all the sights there to be seen
Well you can bet there's a loner
Who'd love to see you be so sweet
That's why I'm telling you to get on your shooz
And get out there on the street
And get your rockin', get your rockin', roll
Rock 'n' roll shooz
Up and down around they go
With their heads turning all around
Way down there on the corner
There's a Cadillac that's easy to be found
Way down there in Chicago
Down along Division Street
The boys are just looking for a girl
Like you to make their stay in town a treat
So get your rockin', get your rockin', roll
Rock 'n' roll shooz
Get it there and you set up new rules
Watch out
I'm told with the armor that he comes more
Here he comes
So get your rockin', oh rockin' roll
Rock 'n' roll shooz
Say another, say it again
Rock 'n' roll shooz
Now they all love it and they keep comin' back for more
Rock 'n' roll shooz

Styx

Styx is a rock band from Chicago formed in 1970. They enjoyed great success with pop rock and hard rock songs, and became famous for their power ballads and album releases of the mid 1970s and early 80s.

The band has gone through some famously nasty internal struggles, drug problems, illnesses and deaths, but continues to perform today (with a significantly altered line-up). Tommy Shaw, from Montgomery, AL, left but returned to the band. Drummer John Panozzo developed a debilitating drinking problem and ultimately died. Dennis DeYoung developed an acute case of photosensitivity, and he left the band. They fought among themselves for control of the band name. Glen Burtnik also left and returned, this time on bass, to replace Chuck Panozzo (John’s brother), who had also left the band. (whew.)
