Turn the dial back on the radio,
To the greatest era of rock and roll
Leather jackets, denim dreams,
Rewind the tape to laser beams.
We were Livin’ on a Prayer, hands in the air,
Pour Some Sugar on me everywhere,
From a Sweet Child O’ Mine to The Final Countdown,
Girls, Girls, Girls go Round And Round.
We don’t need no modern trend,
Just a six-string and a rebel friend,
Hear the crowd start stompin’ feet—
The 80’s calling from the street!
Bring back the 80’s, turn it loud tonight,
We’re Back in Black under neon light,
We Don’t Stop Believin’, we’ll never Let It Go,
We Wanna Rock like an 80’s show.
Bring back the 80’s, feel that fire again,
Let the Crazy Train roll through the night, my friend,
Raise Your Hands, let the speakers blow—
Bring back the 80’s rock and roll!
Hairspray haze and a boombox stack,
Spandex flash and a Cadillac,
Kiss Me Deadly, Livin’ after Midnight
Eye of the Tiger in the spotlight.
We’d shout You Shook Me All Night Long,
Every Jukebox Hero sang along,
From Here I Go Again down the boulevard,
To a Jump off the edge with a wild guitar.
Cassette clicks and a Rebel Yell,
Every note was Heaven and hell,
Feel that rhythm in your soul—
The 80’s never getting’ old!
REPEAT CHORUS
Bridge
From a Fallen Angel to a Panama ride,
We were kings and queens of the amplifier side,
No auto-tune, just a screaming crowd,
Let the thunder shake the clouds!
Strike a chord, let it ring out true,
The 80’s live in me and you!
REPEAT CHORUS
