[Spoken Intro] All right, boys. One more take. Tape's rolling. Guitar's ready. Drums are ready. Piano's ready. Keep it nice and tight this time. One, two... One, two, three, four! [Verse 1] Well, the clock on the wall Says a quarter past ten We've been playing this song Again and again Got a hole in my pocket Got a coffee gone cold Got a brand-new record With a sound that's old The drummer's getting restless The bass man's getting tired But the guitar in the corner Is still plugged in and wired [Pre-Chorus] Turn that dial Push that fader We can go home A little later! [Chorus] One more take! One more time! Hit that beat And walk the line! Turn it up! Let it roll! A little rock and roll Is good for the soul! One more take! One more try! We're gonna get it right Before the morning light! [Verse 2] Well, the piano's out of tune And the singer missed a line The guitar played a wrong note For the seventeenth time Got a producer in the window With his hands on his head He keeps pointing at the clock But we're playing instead The drummer hits a backbeat The bass begins to walk And everybody's laughing When the guitar starts to talk [Pre-Chorus] Roll that tape Let it run We ain't leaving Till it's done! [Chorus] One more take! One more time! Hit that beat And walk the line! Turn it up! Let it roll! A little rock and roll Is good for the soul! One more take! One more try! We're gonna get it right Before the morning light! [Spoken Break] Hold it right there. That sounded pretty good. Keep that guitar going. Bring in the drums. All right, from the top! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Now the clock says midnight And the coffee's running dry There's a little bit of magic And nobody knows why We got twenty years behind us And another song to play Every time we say we're finished We find a reason to stay So the drummer starts counting And the bass man comes around And the whole room starts shaking With that old familiar sound [Pre-Chorus] One more shot One more song Everybody Sing along! [Final Chorus] One more take! One more time! Hit that beat And walk the line! Turn it up! Let it roll! A little rock and roll Is good for the soul! One more take! One more try! We're gonna get it right Before the morning light! One more take! One more time! One more take! And we're feeling fine! [Instrumental Ending] [Spoken Outro] That's it. That's the one. Leave it right there. Don't touch a thing. [Single wrong guitar note] Oh, come on! [Laughter]
