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 your face, you big disgrace
Kickin' your can all over the place

Singing we will we will rock you
We will we will rock you

Buddy you're a young man hard man shouting in the street
Gonna take on the world some day
You got blood on your face, you big disgrace
Waving your banner all over the place

We will we will rock you, sing it
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, big disgrace
Somebody betta put you back in your place

We will we will rock you, sing it
We will we will rock you, everybody
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you - alright
