[Ab] Guess who [Cm] just got back [Db] today?
Them wild [C]-eyed boys that had been [Cm] away.

You [Cm] know that chick that used to dance [Db] a lot?
Every [C] night she'd be on the floor [Cm] shaking what she'd got.
[Fm] Man, when I tell you she was cool, [Bbm] she was red hot.
I [Db] mean she was steaming.
And [Ab] [Gm] that time over at Johnny's [Db] Place,
well this [Dbm] chick got up and she slapped [Cm] Johnny's face.
[Fm] Man, we just fell about the [Bbm] place.
If that chick don't want to know, forget her.

[Ab] Friday [Cm] night they'll be dressed to kill
[Db] down at [C] Dino's Bar and Grill.
[Cm] The drink will [Fm] flow and blood will spill.
[Bbm] And if the boys want to fight, you better let them.
[Ab] That new [Cm] box in the corner blasting out [Db] my favorite song.
For nights [E] it gets warmer, it [Cm] won't be long,
won't [F] be long till summer [Db] comes.
Now that the boys are here again.
