Lyrics: 

Ooh, hey, hey
Ha
(Ooh, oh, ooh)

Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you
Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you

Pardon me, but I gotta let you know
You're a fabulous skater, you're a one person show
You've got moves others dream they can do
I'd give anything on earth if I could skate with you

Take my hand and we'll glide around the rink
To be groovin' right beside you is all I wanna think
Fast and fine, hey, I can't look away
Got my eyes glued on you and the way you swing and sway

I dig you every night
Rockin' to the music
You're like a sexy vision
Skatin' in the moonlight

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date

Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you
Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you

You're so free, you jump high in the air
Won't you roll with me and make us a perfect pair
Leanin' real low or a criss-crossin' stroll
Say I wanna do it all, see, I'm really hot to roll

I dig you every night
Rockin' to the music
You're like a sexy vision
Skatin' in the moonlight

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date

Roll on
Roll, roll on
Roll on
Roll, roll on

Touch my waist, promise we'll fly
Sparklin' like the 4th of July
Oh, you say you will and I do guarantee
You could open my heart

Be my skatin' key and we'll keep on skatin', we may never slow down
Lace â??em up tight and skate all over town
We're lovers on wheels and we do what we do
Side by side on a sidewalk for two

I dig you every night
Rockin' to the music
You're like a sexy vision
Skatin' in the moonlight

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date

Roll on
Roll, roll on
Roll on
Roll, roll on

Roll on

Oh

Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you
Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you

Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you
Got my fingers crossed
I'm hopin' I'll be skatin' with you

Roll, oh, yeah
Roll, oh, yeah

Roll, roll on
Roll on, roll on

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down, let's keep on a skatin', hey

Roll, roll on
Roll, roll on
Let's keep on a groovin', ow

Roll on
Let's roll with a soul now

Skatin', datin'
Movin', groovin'
Rollin', soulin'

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down, let's keep on a spinnin' now

Roll on
To the place â??cross the store, y'all

Whip it, whip it
Whip it, whip it

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down, let's keep on a spinnin' now

Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down on a roller-skain' date
Gee, I'd love to be your roller-skatin' mate
I can see us gettin' down, let's keep on a spinnin' now
