I'll tell you sweetly now
Why I can't come to bed
I'm listening to the music
That's playing in my head
While you're filled
With sleepy dreams
I'm moving to the sounds
The beat keeps driving
In my brain
And the words go
Round and round
I see myself up on the stage
And holding my guitar
And I can't tell
If it's Carnegie Hall
Or just some local bar
But the hands are clapping
And the place is moving
And I feel it in my soul
It's late at night
And I can't sleep
I gotta write some
Rock and roll
It drives me crazy about
Twenty-four hours a day
It's bouncing all around
In my brain and
I've just got to play
While the world
Outside is quiet
And the children
Are fast asleep
But here inside
I'm rockin' 'n' rollin'
To a crazy beat
So come on come on come on
Come on boys let's play
Yeah we gotta do it,
Do it, do it
Twenty-four hours a day
[Chorus]
(Everybody party)
Twenty-four hours a day
(Everybody party)
Ooh, listen baby what I say
(Everybody party)
Twenty-four hours a day
(Everybody party)
Party party every day
Ooh baby let me tell you sweetly
Why I can't come to bed
I'm listening to the music
Playing in my head
While you're filled
With sleepy dreams
I'm moving to the sounds
The beat keeps driving
In the back of my brain
And the music goes
Around and around
So come on come on come on
Come on boys let's play
Yeah we gotta do it,
Do it, do it
Twenty-four hours a day
[Chorus]
