The good time girl swoops down to take me into party town But I resist, then I protest, then I give in and I get dressed And laughing loud she pulls my hair, saying, "Tie it up, but let it down." "Tonight, delight in party town." And dizziness and gravity battle for the best of me The dawn may have the rest of me When the good time girl calls for me We'll eat till heart's content, wild meats to feed our merriment Our world becomes a carrousel for paupers, kings, the ne'r do well Tongiht we're pirates on the open sea no quarter given for a lesson learned Tomorrow there'll be bridges burned And dizziness and gravity battle for the best of me The dawn may have the rest of me When the good time girl calls for me It's years since she swooped down, I've lost my taste for party town But when life gets blue, I cannot cope, I look through my kaleidoscope And there she is among the clouds, shouting, "What will be your epitaph?" Live true, live well, and belly laugh And dizziness and gravity battle for the best of me The dawn may have the rest of me When the good time girl calls for me
