(Oh yeah, it's quittin' time! Let's get outta here!)

Time don't fly, it seems to crawl,
I got my eye on that timeclock on the wall,
I got some plans with the little gal of mine,
Tonight right after quittin' time

Baby, baby don't be late(Don't be late),
I'll meet you at the house at a quarter to eight,
I know a band that'll rock a little place
Gonna boogie woogie, put a smile on your face

I did my time, I paid my dues,
I got all night long to dance and lose these blues,
All day long, it's been on my mind,
Just me and you tonight after quittin' time

Hey, I just can't lose,
When I'm dressed to kill and I got money too,
My old hot rod El Camino sure runs fine,
Gonna drive you wild tonight after quittin' time

Baby, baby don't be late(Don't be late),
I'm sittin' on ready and I hates to wait,
I got a brand new bolo and some blue suede boots,
A hundred dollar hat and a fifty dollar suit

(Yeah baby, it's quittin' time! Let's go!
No man, let it go. We'll do it tomorrow.
Yeah, I'll meet you there. Yeah, c'mon around.
It's quittin time!)
