BASEMENT VAN ERIC HUTCHINSON By Tom Vink;) REPEAT COUPLET
AI'm going down to the baDsement, y'all AWhere people have a goodD time The parties that I hit Have nothing to do with wit My ears are going out of their mind, mind, mind, mind, mind Down here they play the real thing Songs that really are rock and roll It's a cliche to put it this way But they don't make 'em like that any more, more, more, more, more
PRE-REFREIN
EAnd if they put me in the spotlight DI'm never leaving the floor
REFREIN
AI'm going down to the baDsement I'm going down to the basement I'm going down to the basement Cause I Ereally wanna rocDk and roll A
COUPLET An older man gets on the mic Tells us to hang our burdens up He says songs you hear today All start to get in the way Til you're barely even feeling the love, love, love, love, love He drops the needle on a pop song He drops the needle on some soul I watch a pair fall in love over there Dancing to songs their parents would know, know, know, know, know PRE-REFREIN So everybody give me room now Watch me cut a rug in the show REFREIN I'm going down to the basement I'm going down to the basement I'm going down to the basement Cause I really wanna rock and roll BRIDGE!
