Living on the street Tonight's a lonely place to be all right, oh lord The rhythm of the city, I don't find it pretty anymore Like I did before You walked out my door
Give me back the beat, give me back the beat Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone (she's really gone) Give me back the beat and let's rock on
I feel the pounding of your heart But I'm alone here in the dark, it's true Alleys filled with misery Shadows of your memories break thru I never knew How much I needed you
Give me back the beat, give me back the beat Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone (she's really gone) Give me back the beat and let's rock on (ooh, rock on baby)
I won't sleep; baby, I can't eat I'm in too deep
It's a high fall running into a brick wall all by yourself But I know what will help
That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone (now that you're gone) So give me back the beat, you've got to...
(Give me back the beat, give me back the beat) Give me back the only thing that makes my life complete If you come back to me, I'll be dancing in the street I miss the two we had before that made me tap my feet That used to rock this boy asleep now that you're gone (she's really gone) So give me back the beat and let's rock on (ooh, rock on baby) So give me back the beat and let's rock on (rock on) Give me back the beat... and let's rock on
(ooh, rock on baby) Let's rock on, baby, mmm... (ooh, rock on baby) Gary's rockin'... Mark's rockin' on... (ooh, rock on baby) Steve's rockin' on... Ringo's rockin' on! (ooh, rock on baby) Come on, rock! (ooh, rock on baby) Let's rock on.
