Rock And Roll All Nite Lyrics

You show us everything you've got
You keep on dancin' and the room gets hot
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You say you wanna go for a spin
The party's just begun, we'll let you in
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'

I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day

You keep on saying you'll be mine for a while
You're lookin' fancy and I like your style
You drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You show us everything you've got
Baby, baby that's quite a lot
And you drive us wild, we'll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin', you keep on shoutin'

I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
I wanna rock and roll all night

Rock And Roll All Nite Song Chart

Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley of Kiss wrote this track, which became their signature song and was usually played as the last song in their encores. Stanley told Bruce Pollock: "Originally Gene and I would tend to help each other fill in the gaps. 'Rock and Roll All Night' came about because we felt we needed an anthem, a song that could be the rallying cry for all of our fans. So I went back to the hotel and came up with the chorus and the melody. Then I went down to see Gene and he came up with the verses. We used to write a lot like that. As Gene and I became better writers we became either less willing to bend on our individual ideas, or it may have been that we both figured our songs would be stronger if developed by the person who wrote them." (Pollock is a contributing writer to Songfacts. Check out his column They're Playing My Song.)

Kiss performed this at the 1999 Super Bowl pre-game show with dancers dressed like the band.

This was featured in the movie Dazed And Confused.

Kiss performed this at the closing ceremonies of the 2002 winter Olympics from Salt Lake City, while Katarina Witt and Kristi Yamaguichi skated to it.

The chorus of this song is also heard at the beginning of the song "Detroit Rock City", from the Destroyer album, as part of the intro to the original version of "Detroit Rock City." (thanks, Jeff - Haltom City, TX)

Kiss produced a video for this where they performed the song along with the cast of That '70s Show. (thanks, Patrick - Conyers, GA)

On the Kiss Unplugged album, each of the original band members sang a line of this as they played it on Acoustic instruments. (thanks, Gary - Steeleville, IL)

The members of Kiss provided their voices for an episode of Family Guy where Peter and Lois are following a Kiss tour. As the band plays this song, they hold the microphone up to Lois in the crowd to sing along after the line, "I wanna rock and roll all nite and..." Even though most people (including non-Kiss fans) know the words, Lois doesn't know the words and says "have a wonderful time." This leads to her revelation that she just pretends to like Kiss for Peter's sake, which upsets him until they go to a restaurant and meet the band, who recognize Lois from when she was a groupie known as "Loose Lois." Peter is honored that his wife slept with Kiss. (thanks, Bert - Pueblo, NM)

The American rock band Poison recorded a cover of this song on the soundtrack of the 1987 film Less Than Zero. It later appears on their 2006 compilation The Best of Poison: 20 Years of Rock and again on their 2007 cover album Poison'd!. (thanks, Alec Thorp - Yorktown Heights, NY)

On May 1, 2009, Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons' voices appeared on the television show The Fairly OddParents on the channel Nickelodeon. Kiss plays the role of the "Galactic Guardians of the White Wand." The song "Rock and Roll All Nite" is played at the beginning and end of their concert. (thanks, Zach - Pocahontas, AR)
