Hold onto your hat, hold onto your heart
Ready, get set to tear this place apart
Don't need a ticket, only place in town
That'll take you up to heaven and never bring you down
Anything goes!
Anything goes!
Women to the left, women to the right
There to entertain and take you through the night
So grab a little heat and come along with me
'Cos your mama don't mind what your mama don't see
Anything goes! (That's right)
(Come on) Anything goes!(Ooh oh)

Rock! Rock! never stop

Ridin' into danger, laughin' all the way
Fast, free and easy, livin' for today
Gotta lip service, get it while you can
Hot, sweat 'n' nervous love on demand
Anything goes! (Oh)
Anything goes! (All night long)
