[Spoken Intro: Michael Jackson]
I think I wanna rock, woo
Everybody
[Verse 1: Michael Jackson]
Girl, close your eyes
Let that rhythm get into you
Don't try to fight it
There ain't nothin' that you can do
Relax your mind
Lay back and groove with mine
You gotta feel the heat
And we can ride the boogie
Share that beat of love
[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
I wanna rock with you (All night)
Dance you into day (Sunlight)
I wanna rock with you, yeah (All night)
We're gonna rock the night away
[Verse 2: Michael Jackson]
Out on the floor
There ain't nobody there but us
Girl, when you dance
There's a magic that must be love
Just take it slow, ooh
'Cause we got so far to go
When you feel that heat
And we're gonna ride the boogie
Share that beat of love
[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
I wanna rock with you (All night)
Dance you into day (Sunlight)
I wanna rock with you, girl (All night)
Rock the night away
[Bridge: Michael Jackson & The Jacksons]
And when the grove is dead and gone, everybody sing
You know that love survives
So we can rock forever on
Hee-hee-hee, come on, girl, rock with me
Everybody
I wanna rock with you
I wanna groove with you
All night long, rock with me, rock with me
I wanna rock with you
I wanna groove with you
[Outro: Michael Jackson & (The Jacksons)]
I wanna rock (All night) with you, girl (Sunlight)
Rock with you, rock with you, yeah (All night)
Dance the night away
I wanna rock with you, yeah (All night)
I wanna rock you 'til the morning (Sunlight)
I wanna rock with you (All night, all night)
Feel the heat, groove with the beat (All night)
Rock you into day (Sunlight)
I wanna rock (All night, all night)
I wanna rock, yeah
I wanna rock (All night)
Hee-hee-hee, rock, baby, ooh (All night)
I wanna rock with you, yeah (All night, all night)
I wanna rock with you
Come on, girl, rock with me 'til the morning, hee
(How you feel, New York? How you feel?)
I think I wanna rock, woo
