Lyrics
I tell you sweetly now
I am honestly explaining to you
Why I can't come to bed
Why I cannot go to bed
I'm listening to the music
I am engrossed in listening to the music
That's playing in my head
Playing in my mind
While your filled
While you are filled with sleepy dreams
With sleepy dreams
I am responding to the sounds
I'm moving to the sounds
The beat keeps driving me
The beat keep driving
In my brain
In my brain
And the words circulate
And the words go
Round and round
Round and round
I envision myself on the stage
I see myself up on the stage
With my guitar
And holding my guitar
Unsure if it's Carnegie Hall or a local bar
And I can't tell
I cannot discern
If it's Carnegie Hall
Whether it's a prestigious venue or a local establishment
Or just some local bar
But the applause is resounding
But the hands are clapping
And the place is vibrant
And the place is moving
I sense it in my soul
And I feel it in my soul
It's late, and sleep eludes me
It's late at night
I must compose some rock and roll
And I can't sleep
This passion consumes me
I gotta write some
I must create rock and roll
Rock and roll
Despite the late hour
It drives me crazy about
This intensity persists for
Twenty-four hours a day
Twenty-four hours daily
It's bouncing all around
It reverberates within my mind
In my brain
I am compelled to play
I've just got to play
While the world
While the external world is tranquil
Outside is quiet
And the children are asleep
And the children
Yet, internally, I am rocking and rolling
Are fast asleep
To a frenzied beat
But here inside
I'm rockin' 'n' rollin'
-To a crazy beat
-So come on come on come on
Encouraging others to join and play
Come on boys let's play
Expressing enthusiasm
Yeah we're gonna do it,
We are committed to doing it
Do it, do it
Twenty-four hours daily
Twenty-four hours a day
Everybody party
Everybody is celebrating
Twenty-four hours a day
Twenty-four hours daily
Everybody party
Everybody is celebrating
Come on boys let's play
Encouraging others to play
Listen baby what I say
Listen to what I'm saying
Everybody party
Everybody is celebrating
Party party every day
Celebration every day
