LYRICS:
Pre-intro/Intro:
I wanna rock!
I wanna rock!
I want to rock!
I wanna rock!
Verse 1:
Turn it down you say, well all I got to say to you
Is time and time again I say no! (No!)
No no, no no, no!
Tell me not to play, well all I got to say that
When you tell me not to play I say no! (No!)
No no, no no, no!
Pre-Chorus 1:
So if you ask me why I like the way I play
There's only one thing I can
Say to you
Chorus:
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
I want to rock! (Rock!)
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
Verse 2:
There's a feeling that I get from nothing else
And there ain't nothing in the world that makes me go! (Go!)
Go go, go go, go!
Turn the power up, I've waited for so long
So I can hear my favorite song so let's go! (Go!)
Go go, go go, go!
Pre-Chorus 2:
When it's like this I feel the music shooting through me
There's nothing else that I would
Rather do
Repeat Chorus.
Bridge:
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
I want to rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
I wanna rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
Rock! (Rock!)
