Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, haven't much to say
But man, I still think them cats are great
They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
I said, the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
I said, the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
You know that chick that used to dance a lot?
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming
And that time over at Johnny's place
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny face
Man we just fell about the place
If that chick don't want to know, forget her
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
I said, the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
I said, the boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
Guess who's back in town
You spread the word around
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow and blood will spill
And if the boys want to fight, you'd better let them
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
Won't be long till summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
Spread the word around
The boys are back in town (the boys are back in town)
The boys are back
The boys are back
The boys are back in town again
They're hanging down at Dino's
The boys are back in town again
