Lyrics below
Everybody get in the groove and let the good times roll
Got to stay here till we soothe our little souls
If it takes all night long
It might be one o’clock and it might be three
I don’t care ‘cos time mean nothing do me
We’ve been swinging since I don’t know when
I might not, might not feel this good again
Everybody get in the groove and let the good times roll
Got to stay here till we soothe our little souls
If it takes me all night long
All night, all night
All night, all night
All night long
Everybody, it might be one o’clock and it might be three
I don’t care ‘cos time mean nothing do me
We’ve been swinging since I don’t know when
I might not, might not feel this good again
Everybody get in the groove and let the good times roll
Got to stay here till we soothe our little souls
If it takes all night long
