Girls Got Rhythm Lyrics

I've been around the world
I've seen a million girls
Ain't one of them got
What my lady she's got

She's stealin' the spotlight
Knocks me off my feet
She's enough to start a landslide
Just a walkin' down the street

Wearing dresses so tight
And looking dynamite
Enough to blow me out
No doubt about it can't live without it

The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
She's got the backseat rhythm (backseat rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm

She's like a lethal brand
Too much for any man
She gives me first degree
She really satisfies me

Love me till I'm legless
Aching and sore
Enough to stop a freight train
Or start the Third World War

You know I'm losin' sleep
I'm in too deep
Like a body needs blood
No doubt about it, can't live without it

The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
She's got the backseat rhythm (backseat rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm

You know she moves like sin
And when she lets me in
It's like liquid love
No doubt about it, can't live without it

The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
She's got the backseat rhythm (backseat rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm (girl's got rhythm)

You know she really got the rhythm (girl's got rhythm)
She's got the backseat rhythm (backseat rhythm)
Rock 'n' roll rhythm (rock n roll rhythm)
The girl's got rhythm

Girls Got Rhythm Song Chart

This lascivious rocker is one of the last tunes written by lead singer Bon Scott, who died six months after the album was released. It's a classic Bon Scott lyric, as he finds myriad ways of explaining how his woman satisfies him, all while keeping the title squeaky clean and radio-friendly. It was released as a single in the UK and other parts of Europe, but didn't chart. In America, the song did very well on stations with the Album Oriented Rock (AOR) format.

Highway To Hell was the first AC/DC album produced by Mutt Lange, who employed various production techniques that made the band's sound more appealing to the masses without softening their sound. On this song, you can especially hear Lange's influence in the backing answer vocals ("girls got rhythm... back seat rhythm").

Lange was an up-and-coming producer at the time, but he would soon become a superstar, launching into the stratosphere with AC/DC's next album, Back In Black.

Note that there is no apostrophe in the title, which implies multiple girls having rhythm. The lyric suggests that an apostrophe is necessary, as Scott is singing about one specific girl, but it's not likely that anyone challenged his grammar.
