Mama get your shoes on
And daddy get your hat
The working week is over
So let's just leave it at that
We talk about it on the telephone
Making plans to meet
Something's gonna happen
Tonight between the full moon and the streets
Get outta your seat
It's friday night (friday night in America)
Oh, friday night (friday night in America)
Hit the lights
Hold on tight
It's friday night, y'all
In america
And everybody in the neighborhood
They're on their way downtown
One up top and dressed to kill
Ready to hit the ground
They come to rumble
And they come to dance
They come to see the show
And if they can't find what they're looking for
They know somebody
Who knows somebody
Who'll know
Yeah, gotta be on your toes
It's friday night (friday night in America)
It's all right (friday night in America)
Well you could lose your heart
Lose you life
It's friday night, y'all
Debutantes in a restaurant
Gunshots in the parking lot
Sweet dreams on the silver screen
You better turn up the heat in the back seat
Soul savers (flag wavers)
Street walkers (sweet talkers)
You make it through the weekend
You come back and do it again
Next friday night
Looking through your headlights
Hand upon the wheel
Your heart's beating like a radio
In your soul of stainless steel
She's standing on the corner
Dressed in midnight blue
Ticking like a time bomb
When she turns her eyes on you
(What ya gonna do?)
It's friday night, friday night in America
Ooh, night, (friday night in America)
Got to be strong to make it
All night long on friday night
(Friday night in America)
(Friday night in America)
Hit the lights and hold on tight
You can bet your life it's friday night, y'all
In America (friday night)
All right, all night in America (friday night)
Till the dawns early light in America (friday night)
In America (friday night)
