Detroit Breakdown - J. Geils Band

Everybody’s doin' it right in the hall

Plaster is fallin' right on the floor

We’re tearin' it up and that’s for sure

Doin' the Detroit breakdown

Oh, Motor City shakedown

A-doin' the Detroit breakdown

I said the Motor City shakedown

Jumpin' toes and everything goes

Hot night, sweatin' right in your clothes

I’m bittersweet for dancin' feet

Everybody did it, found her right in the street

Doin' the Detroit breakdown

I said Motor City shakedown

Ow, Detroit breakdown

Hey, Motor City shakedown

I’m losin' touch, I’m feelin' no pain

Everything is headed right down the drain

I’m gettin' crazy, this I swear

I’m past my limit, honey, I don’t care

Doin' the Detroit breakdown

Oh, Motor City shakedown

Ah, Detroit breakdown

Oh, Motor City shakedown

Breakdown

Yeah

Come on

Ow

Do it

Um

Uh

Yeah

If you’re goin' out on, ooh, on a dare

Don’t get caught, baby, found in my bed

Station to station, what you got

I’m gettin' ready, man, to blow my top, yeah

Ah, hands on my head and I’m holdin' my 'caine

Jumpin' up and crazy, I’ve gone insane

I got somethin' mean stickin' in my pocket

Until you tried it, you better not knock it

Doin' the Detroit breakdown

Oh, Motor City shakedown

Yeah, Detroit breakdown

You’re doin' the Motor City shakedown

Let me hear ya, Jerome

Detroit breakdown

I said the Motor City shakedown

Oh, Detroit breakdown

Oh, the Motor City shakedown

Come on, babies

Now do the Detroit breakdown

You hear me?

You’re doin' the Motor City shakedown

Let me see you baby, ah, do the Detroit breakdown

Oh, the Motor City shakedown

Shake it, shake it, baby

Yeah

Wow

Oh, you’re doin' the Detroit breakdown

Yeah, Motor City shakedown

Let’s do the Detroit breakdown

Motor City shakedown

Doin' it

Ah yeah, doin' it

Doin' it

Ah, doin' it

The Detroit breakdown, ha

Motor City shakedown

Ow, the Detroit breakdown

Doin' it, doin' it, don’t you say

Shake it down
