Who’s gonna make you feel just right
When that music’s playin’
You gotta kick out the doors and turn out the light
When that music’s playin’
When the thing cuts loose it’s out-a hand
You know you just can’t stop it
Can’t sit in your chair, you got to stand
You know you just can’t stop it
We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild
We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild

Whole damn place keeps blowin’ higher, yeah
Guitar man sets the strings on fire
Hey, now it’s ’bout time to set things straight
You know you just can’t stop it
So now it’s time to advocate
You know you just can’t stop it

We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild
We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild

Who’s gonna make you feel just right
When that music’s playin’
You gotta kick out the doors and turn out the light
When that music’s playin’
When the thing cuts loose it’s out-a hand
You know you just can’t stop it
Can’t sit in your chair, you got to stand
You know you just can’t stop it

We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild
We can make it, we can shake it in a little while
We can make it
Down to the corner where the night’s goin’ hog wild
