Play along at home with the lyrics:
[Verse 1] Who's gonna tell you when it's too late? Who's gonna tell you things aren't so great? [Chorus] You can't go on, thinking nothing's wrong, (mumble) Who's gonna drive you home tonight? [Verse 2] Who's gonna pick you up when you fall? Who's gonna hang it up when you call? Who's gonna pay attention to your dreams? Yeah, who's gonna plug their ears when you scream? [Chorus repeats] [Verse 3] Who's gonna hold you down when you shake? Who's gonna come around when you break? [Chorus repeats x2] last with extra emphasis: Oh, you know you can't go on thinking nothing's wrong (mumble) Who's gonna drive you home tonight?
