It's hot up in the West End, there's panic right downtown
As the gangs assemble, coming up from underground
Well, Jesus, I don't know which side I should be on
I'm a class contender if anything goes wrongWhen it's time to rock
We're the only ones
No one takes this block
'Cos we're number oneWe sneaked through the no go, very late last night
Out up from the back streets, cruising for a fight
Well, Jackie's got his six string, he can play behind his back
Mickey's out from Belleville, he's just makin' tracksWhen it's time to rock
We're the only ones
No one takes this block
'Cos we're number oneAs we rocked through the midnight, took 'em all by storm
The police boys didn't have a chance, didn't even get warm
Oh Daddy, why am I sittin' here? I'm not a member of the bar
I'm not the only wild one in a hot wired carWhen it's time to rock
We're the only ones
No one takes this block
'Cos we're number one
