"Where The Bands Are" lyrics

"Where The Bands Are"

I hear the guitars ringin' out
Ringin' out down Union Street
I hear the lead singer shoutin' out girl
I wanna be a slave to the beat
Yeah tonight I wanna break my chains
Somebody break my heart
Somebody shake my brains
Downtown there's something that I wanna hear
There's a sound little girl keeps ringin' in my ear

I wanna be where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are
Where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are

I get off from work and I grab something to eat
I turn the corner and I drive down your street
Little gray houses, darling, looks like nowhere
But hey I know you're hidin' in there
Come on out for just a little while
You know that heart of stone girl it just ain't your style
Tonight I wanna feel the beat of the crowd
And when I tell you that I love you
I wanna have to shout it out loud
Shout it out loud

I wanna be where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are
Where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are

I hear the guitars ringin' out again
Ringin' on down Union Street
I hear the lead singer shoutin' out and girl
I wanna be a slave to the beat
And I want something that'll break my chains
Something to break my heart
Something to break my chains
There's a rocker's special on tonight
So meet me on down
'Neath the neon lights

I wanna be where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are
Where the bands are
I wanna be where the bands are
