"The Basement"
[00:14.09] Whoa, whoa, whoa
[00:24.18] I'm going down to the basement y'all
[00:27.05] Where people have a good time
[00:29.68] The parties that I hit have nothing to do with wit
[00:32.17] My ears are going out of their mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
[00:35.83] Down here they play the real thing
[00:38.31] Songs that really are rock and roll
[00:41.55] It's a cliche to put it this way
[00:43.79] But they don't make 'em like that anymore, more, more, more, more
[00:47.29] And if they put me in the spot light
[00:50.30] I'm never leaving the floor
[00:53.05] I'm going down to the basement
[00:56.05] I'm going down to the basement
[00:58.80] I'm going down to the basement
[01:01.05] 'Cause I really want to rock and roll
[01:04.94] Ohhh
[01:09.07] An old man gets on the mic
[01:11.45] Tells us to hang our burdens up
[01:13.95] He says, "Songs you hear today all start to get in the way
[01:16.95] Till you're barely feeling the love, love, love, love, love"
[01:20.56] He drops the needle on a pop song
[01:23.55] He drops the needle on some soul
[01:26.41] And I watch a pair fall in love over there
[01:28.53] Dancing to songs their parents would know, know, know, know, know
[01:32.02] So everybody give me room now
[01:34.64] Watch me cut a rug in this show
[01:38.01] I'm going down to the basement
[01:40.75] I'm going down to the basement
[01:43.75] I'm going down to the basement
[01:45.76] 'Cause I really want to rock and roll
[01:49.51] Ooohhh
[01:52.27] Alright!
[01:54.01] Party people sweat out the night
[01:59.48] Let your body do just what it likes
[02:05.36] Just want to hear something from before my years
[02:11.36] Dance soldiers forgetting our day jobs
[02:13.76] Trying to get our funk on 'cause we came to rock and roll
[02:17.00] I'm going down to the basement
[02:19.74] I'm going down to the basement
[02:22.74] I'm going down to the basement
[02:24.76] 'Cause I really want to rock and roll
[02:30.82] Alright!
