Rip It Up/Ready Teddy
Lennon, John
Wonsaponatime (1998)

A one, a one two, a one two three!

Well, it's saturday night and I just got paid
fool about my money, don't try to save
my heart says, "go go! have a time!"
'cause it's saturday night and, baby, I feel fine.

Gonna rip it up
gonna rock it up
gonna shake it up
gonna ball it up
gonna rock it up
and ball the night.

I got me a date and I won't be late
picked her up in my eighty-eight
shag on down to the union hall
when the joint starts jumpin', I'll have a ball.

Gonna rip it up ...

Well, ready, set, go man, go
I got a girl that I love so.

And I'm ready
ready, ready, Ted
I'm ready
ready, ready, Ted
I'm ready
ready, ready, Ted
I'm ready, ready, Ted to rock and roll.

Goin' to the corner, pick up my sweetie pie
she's a rock and roll baby, she's the apple of my eye.

I'm ready ...

Now, the flat-top cats and the dungaree dolls
headed for the gym to the sock hop ball
the joint's really jumpin', the cats are goin' wild
the music really send me, I dig that crazy style.

I'm ready ...

Gonna kick off my shoes, roll up my faded jeans
got a rock'n'roll babe, come on and see
I shuffle to the left, I'm shuffle to the right
gonna rock'n'roll 'to the early, early night.

Yes?
