Well the night's begun and you want some fun
Do you think you're gonna find it
You got to treat yourself like number one
Do you need to be reminded
It doesn't matter what you do or say
Just forget the things that you've been told
We can't do it any other way
Ev'rybody's got to rock n roll yay

Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

If you don't feel good ev'ry way you could
Don't sit there broken hearted
Call all your friends in the neighborhood
And get the party started
Don't let them tell you that there's too much noise
They're too old to really understand
You'll still get rowdy with the girls and boys
Cause it's time for you to take a stand yay

Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
