Lyrics:
Buddy you're a boy make a big noise
Playin' in the street gonna be a big man some day
You got mud on yo' face
You big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place
Singin'
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
Buddy you're a young man hard man
Shoutin' in the street gonna take on
the world some day
You got blood on yo' face
You big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place
We will we will rock you
Singin'
We will we will rock you
Buddy you're an old man poor man
Pleadin' with your eyes gonna make you
some peace some day
You got mud on your face
You big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place
We will we will rock you
Singin
We will we will rock you
Everybody
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you
