Come on Out Tonight

Well you got some tips and you learned some licks

you wanna try and teach this old dog some new tricks, huh?

well you told your friends you'd have a little bit of fun

you wanna walk on up now one, huh?

you asked me if I'd like to dine - do you have enough courage

have you had enough wine, sunshine?

keep your head up

don't you sweat in the spotlight

you're coming out tonight

yeah, you're coming out tonight

take a good hard look at this big star view

don't be bitin' off more than you're ever gonna chew, yeah

you can break the rules when you play in the dark

but every wild fire comes from a little bitty spark, yeah

does your mama know who you're hangin' around

a souped up punk in a rock and roll gown, uh, small town

keep your head up

don't you sweat in the spotlight

you're coming out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight

(are you ready for your big premiere

people will think your acting sort of queer)

Hey, well come over here

Tell your friends that you won't be home

you got a tiger by the tail and a tiger on the phone, yeah

You're lookin' sharp you got the right location

everybody's ready for the next sensation, your reputation

keep your head up

don't you sweat in the spotlight

keep your head up

don't you sweat in the spotlight

keep your head up

don't you sweat in the spotlight

you're coming out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight

come on out tonight
