		 AAnd (x02220@1)I'm a she-cat tiger comin' out of the cage.

	AWe're (x02220@1)gonna find a little place where we can rip and roll.

We gonna cut a deep groove in that hardwood floor.
 DSet (xx0232@1)up the shooters and break out the cream.
   AThrow (x02220@1)a whole roll of quarters in the boogie machine.
	  EWe're (022100@1)gonna turn up the heat and keep the jukebox humpin'.
