Raise The Roof Lyrics - Peter Cincotti

(Music & Lyrics by Andrew Lippa) 

Lock the door and stop complaining 

Gather 'round and listen well 

From now on we're entertaining 

How to hotten up this hell. 

Hold the mood and hold the chatter 

Skip the food and stop the clatter 

Can't you hear that pitter-patter? 

We're not here to eat. 

We came for the heat!

Let's raise the roof 

Let's make a scene 

Let's hop the gods of love 

Will shine above 

And show the way. 

Let's call the shots 

Let's roll the dice 

Take my advice 

It always pays 

To raise the roof! 

Crush the ice and shake forever 

Tell the evening where to go 

And if you need a new endeavor 

I can teach you what I know

Grab your partner by the collar 

Bribe the barman with a dollar 

Just ignite that mighty holler 

Lead me to the trough 

Till the light goes off! 

Let's raise the roof 

Let's make a scene 

Let's hop the gods of love 

Will shine above 

And show the way. 

Let's call the shots 

Let's roll the dice 

Take my advice 

It always pays to raise the roof! 

Cut the strings and set the table 

Gather roses on your way 

Welcome to our Tower of Babel 

Learn the language, come what may. 

Spare me how the wind is blowing 

If you keep the whiskey flowing 

You can reap what you've been sowing 

If you walk the plank 

You've got me to thank 

Let's raise the roof 

Let's make a scene 

Let's hope the gods of love 

Will shine above 

And show the way. 

Let's call the shots 

Let's roll the dice 

The time for playing nice has run 

Before the big hand hits the one 

We've got to do what must be done 

Raise the roof 

Raise the roof 

Raise the roof 

Raise the roof
