"The Boys In The Band" lyrics

Is everybody here well all right then we're ready
Put your hands together and give me some back beat clapping
Turn the lights up a little so we can see everybody
And now with your attention I will mention all the boys in the band

Mississippi's on the drums and the bass guitar is from Texas
And the organ boss man and the singer was raised in the northwest
Now the electric guitar has come far from the heart of the south land
And now with your permission I will listen to the boys in the band

Hey everybody, got to have a good time
Listen to the music and clap your hands
Hey everybody, got to have a good time
Listen to the boys in the band

If you like we invite you to stay all the way to closing
And we will perform you a song not too long in composing
So try to unwind, get your mind in a pleasant condition
And now with your permission we will listen to the boys in the band

Hey everybody, got to have a good time
Listen to the music and clap your hands
Hey everybody, got to have a good time
Listen to the boys in the band
