Come on come on thru the stations of night
Come on come on everybody’s waiting
Come on come on with the signal in sight
Come on come on there’s a new tune playing

Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
But who will rock with you
Oh woman with you

Come on come on thru the cities of night
Come on come on everybody’s praying
Come on come on for the wonder of light
Come on come on there’s a new dance breaking

Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
But who will rock with you
Oh woman with you

I ain’t gonna catch those countdown blues
I ain’t gonna catch those countdown blues
I only love to be born again
I only love to be born again
I only love to be born again

Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
Are you ready to rock?
Yes I am
