Line 1: Line 1:
Let's go out on the town tonight
Let's go out on the town tonight
My pockets are heavy with loot
My pockets are heavy with loot
 
And get drunk and blasted
And get drunk and nasty
(And loud in your dress of blue)
 
And loud and aggressive to boot


I've been living from hand to mouth
I've been living from hand to mouth
 
It must be three or four weeks
For what must be three or four weeks
And I can tell you one thing Jack
 
And I can tell you one thing, Jack
 
You listen when your stomach speaks
You listen when your stomach speaks


 
I feel good just like I knew that I would
 
I feel good, just like I knew that I would
 
And all on account of that wine that I bought today
And all on account of that wine that I bought today
I'm smiling so sweet
At every little girl that I meet
Some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way


And I'm smiling so sweet at every little girl that I meet
It feels so funny having all of this money
 
And some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way
 
Oh, it feels so funny having all of this money
 
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away


 
I got me this long legged girl
 
I got me this long-legged girl
 
To help me to spend my dough
To help me to spend my dough
Her heart as big as your mama's stove
And her body like Brigitte Bardot


A heart as big as your mama's stove
I'm all ready for some Rock and Roll
 
And a body like Brigitte Bardot
 
I'm all ready for some rock 'n' roll
 
With the guitar turned up loud
With the guitar turned up loud
And the fancy footwork
And the fancy footwork
And the (drunk) down, druged up crowd


And a low-down, drugged-up crowd
I feel good just like I knew that I would
 
All on account of that wine that I bought today
 
I'm smiling so sweet
 
At every little girl that I meet
I feel good, just like I knew that I would
Some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way
 
And all on account of that wine that I bought today
 
And I'm smiling so sweet at every little girl that I meet
 
And some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way
 
Well, it feels so funny having all this money


It feels so funny having all of this money
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away
I think I feel like dancing the night away

Let's go out on the town tonight My pockets are heavy with loot And get drunk and blasted (And loud in your dress of blue)

I've been living from hand to mouth It must be three or four weeks And I can tell you one thing Jack You listen when your stomach speaks

I feel good just like I knew that I would And all on account of that wine that I bought today I'm smiling so sweet At every little girl that I meet Some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way

It feels so funny having all of this money I think I feel like dancing the night away I think I feel like dancing the night away

I got me this long legged girl To help me to spend my dough Her heart as big as your mama's stove And her body like Brigitte Bardot

I'm all ready for some Rock and Roll With the guitar turned up loud And the fancy footwork And the (drunk) down, druged up crowd

I feel good just like I knew that I would All on account of that wine that I bought today I'm smiling so sweet At every little girl that I meet Some fools will try to tell you it's a sin to feel this way

It feels so funny having all of this money I think I feel like dancing the night away I think I feel like dancing the night away
