Them wild-eyed boys that had been away

You know that chick that used to dance a lot

C Bm Em

Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got

Am C

Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot

D7

I mean she was steaming

G Bm

And that time over at Johnny's place

Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face

Man we just fell about the place

If that chick don't want to know, forget her

Friday night they'll be dressed to kill

Down at Dino's bar and grill

Bm Em

The drink will flow and blood will spill

Am7 D7

And if the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

G Bm C

That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song

Eb D

The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long

Em

Won't be long till summer comes

Am D7

Now that the boys are here again
