Summer Nights
Rags & Riches Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been waiting night and day
For something, something to change
Won't you show me
Won't you show me
I've been waiting night and day
For something, something to change
Won't you show me
Oh, won't you show me

We can take ride in my car
Or we could take a walk on the boulevard
I'm up for whatever, if you're up for whatever
So tell me, do you wanna go?
So tell me, are you ready?

Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, we can waste the night
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance

We're only getting started
Just two bodies
Somethings rising, somethings rising
Can't hold back forever
If you want this forever
Everybody's dancing
Oh, won't you let go
So tell me, do you wanna go?
So tell me, are you ready?

Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, we can waste the night
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance

Summer, summer nights in L.A.
Summer, summer nights in L.A.
Summer, summer nights
Summer, summer nights, we'll be okay
Summer, summer nights in L.A.
Summer, summer nights in L.A.
Summer, summer nights
Summer, summer nights

Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, we can waste the night
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance

Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance
Got no plans, we can waste the night
Come, come get up and dance




Got no plans, save me
Come, come get up and dance
