Underground

It's time to lose the day
It's time to head to Beale
Where the rhythm is hot
And the music is real
You can do without love
Swear off the booze
But everyone alive needs to sing the blues
So time to raise some hell and get on down

We goin' down, down underground
(Down under, down down under)
We goin' down, down, down, just to hear that sound
(Down underground, down under)
We're gonna dance so close
Feel my breath on your skin

It ain't quite heaven, but the closest I been
We goin' down, down underground
First we heard it in church (baby)
Then we added some gin (yeah, yeah)
Then we took it down here
(Then we took it down here)
And added soul with sin
Gonna jump and jive like a demon possessed
The devil's in the music
The music is blest
We goin' down where paradise is found

We goin' down, down underground
(Down under, down down under)
We goin' down, down, down, just to burn that sound
(Down underground, down under)
We gonna do some things that you never dared!

Ain't no white folks here
Cause they too damn scared!
We goin' down, down underground

My brother runs my life
My brother owns this bar (That's right!)
He won't let me be till he makes me a star!
He gives me this mic
Makes me sing all I can
Just can't have no fun or talk to no man
Wanna paint the town but with him
Ain't no foolin' around

We goin' down, down underground
(Down under, down down under)
We goin' down, down, down, just to hear that sound
(Down underground, down under)
Gonna grope and grind
Gonna hold on tight
Find true love at least for tonight

We goin' down, down, underground
It's a revolution of the heart and soul!
It's here to stay, ain't never gonna go!
It's a rebel cry that's outta control!
It's the birth of rock and roll!
(Rock and roll, rock and roll, rock and roll!)

We goin' down, down underground
We goin' down, we goin'
We goin' down, down, down,
Gotta rock that sound
(Down underground, down under)!
We gonna dance and drink till the whiskey's all gone
And pray that the preacher forgives us at dawn
We goin' down, down underground!

We're goin' underground! (We goin' underground)
We goin' underground (Oh, we're goin' underground)
We're goin' underground!
