Wally's getting' anxious thinkin' 'bout tonight
Bruce is all spiffy lookin' wicked lookin' right
Eddie's getting' spruced
And Donna's getting' loose
Theyre passin' round the bottle
And they're gettin' good and juiced
B.G.'s winin' dinin' checkin' talent at the club
Skippers hauntin' second lookin' forward to his rub
The busters from the country
And the hitters from the shop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
Someone bring the records
Someone get the brew
Someone get a house
Buddy we'll know what to do
Someone tell the ladies
Someone make a deal
If we can't find a house
Then someone better find a field
Grass is good as carpet
Anyplace is fine
Its time to get to rockin'
Babe it's time to make it shine
Tell 'em we'll be dancin'
Dancin' till we drop
It's time to get down and do the Horizontal Bop
Theyre fillin' up the corners
Theyre fillin' up the streets
You can feel the tension
You can almost feel the heat
The music's gettin' louder
The beat's gittin' fast
Summers finally made it
Yeah its finally here at last
The pony cars are cruisin' on Woodward Avenue
Go and try to pass'em
They'll smoke you if you do
The whole town's shakin' from the bottom to the top
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
The busters from the country
And the hitters from the shop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
Tell 'em we'll be dancin'
Dancin' till we drop
Everybody wants to do the Horizontal Bop
Bob Seger, pseudonimo di Robert Clark Seger (Detroit, 6 maggio 1945), è un chitarrista, pianista, organista, compositore e cantante rock statunitense. Cresciuto nel sobborgo di Dearborn, iniziò a cantare a metà degli anni sessanta in gruppi minori - quali The Decibels, The Town Criers e Doug Brown and the Omens (con cui nel 1965 incise il suo primo disco singolo) - nei locali di Ann Arbor e Detroit (dove la famiglia si era nel frattempo trasferita). Tali esperienze gli consentirono di farsi conoscere ed apprezzare da impresari del showbiz e del mondo discografico (la città di Detroit è conosciuta, oltre che per l'industria automobilistica, anche per essere sede della Motown, insieme a Nashville, Tennessee, uno dei più importanti poli musicali statunitensi) e di giungere al grande successo nei successivi anni settanta e ottanta. Nel 2006 ha pubblicato, a distanza di undici anni dal suo precedente lavoro discografico, l'album Face The Promise. Nella sua lunga carriera non ha mai cessato di portare in tour attraverso l'America le sue canzoni. Il suo nome appare dal 2004 nella Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ed è in lista insieme quello della Silver Bullet Band nell'elenco dei musicisti che fanno parte delle celebrità della Hollywood Walk of Fame, inscritta al numero 1750 di Vine Street, Hollywood, California.
