Some people like to rock
Some people like to roll
But movin' and a groovin'
Gonna satisfy my soul


* Let's have a party
Let's have a party
Send 'em to the store
Let's buy some more
Let's have a party tonight


I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a ghoul
But I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room


* Repeat


Now honkey-tonky Joe
Is knockin' at the door
Bring him in and fill him up
And set him on the floor


* Repeat


The meat is on the stove
The bread is gettin' hot
Everybody's come and taste
A possom mamma shot


* Repeat
We're gonna have a party tonight
