Kid out of touch

Laying down with a dream

On a runaway night

Got a feel for the scene

A girl with lots of tricks

Like to lay them on me

I'd forgotten what it's like

To be seventeen



Well I say fast

She say slow

And so the story goes

She say stop

And I say go, and go, and go, and wow

This boy needs to rock



Tonight, tonight, tonight

This boy needs to rock

(x3) Tonight, tonight, tonight

I need to rock



Up real late

Trading money for kicks

She got all of the moves

I got all of the licks

She can tear at my heart

I'm always begging for more

She can cut me real deep

She can take me real far



Well, I say fast

She say slow

And so the story goes

She say stop

And I say go, and go, and go, and wow

This boy needs to rock



Tonight, tonight, tonight

This boy needs to rock
