Rock and roll band Everybody’s waitin’ Gettin’ crazy Anticipating love and music Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Dancin’ in the streets of hyannis We were getting pretty good at the game People stood in line and didn’t seem to mind You know everybody knew our name Livin’ on rock-n-roll music Never worry ’bout the things we were missing When we got up on the stage and got ready to play Everybody’d listen. Rock and roll band Everybody’s waitin’ Gettin’ crazy Anticipating love and music Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Playin’ for a week in rhode island A man came to the stage one night He smoked a big cigar Drove a cadillac car And said, boys, I think this bands outta-sight Sign a record company contract You know I’ve got great expectations When I hear you on the car radio You’re goin’ to be a sensation!
