Kiss – Detroit Rock City Lyrics

Controversial deal in another show of congressional reports
President Ford says that he’s disappointed with Congress’s performance
In Detroit, a Pontiac, Michigan youth was reported dead
At the scene of a head-on collision on Grand Avenue this morning
The youth was reportedly driving on the wrong side of the boulevard
When he struck a delivery truck and was catapulted through the windshield of his car
The driver of the truck is reported to be uninjured
The identities of both men are being withheld by local police
County legislatives today are expected to rally to the aid of striking
Longshoremen in hopes of ending the nine month deadlock

… and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day

I feel uptight on a Saturday night
Nine o’clock, the radio’s the only light
I hear my song and it pulls me through
Comes on strong, tells me what I got to do
I got to

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody’s gonna leave their seat
You gotta lose your mind in Detroit Rock City

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody’s gonna leave their seat

Getting late, I just can’t wait
Ten o’clock and I know I gotta hit the road
First I drink, then I smoke
Start up the car, and I try to make the midnight show

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody’s gonna leave their seat

Movin’ fast, doin’ 95
Hit top speed but I’m still movin’ much too slow
I feel so good, I’m so alive
I hear my song playin’ on the radio
It goes

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
Get down
Everybody’s gonna leave their seat

12 o’clock, I gotta rock
There’s a truck ahead, lights starin’ at my eyes
Oh, my God, no time to turn
I got to laugh ’cause I know I’m gonna die
Why?

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet

Get up
Everybody’s gonna move their feet
