The Party’s Still Going on Songtext

von Marcia Ball

Well, you can wander on down to Camp Street
Any old Saturday night
Right next door to the corner store
Is the house with the Christmas lights

There's a bad dog sign on the fence post
Just throw that dog a bone
And step on in 'cause we're all friends
And the party's still going on

Yeah, the party's still going on
We're gonna rock until the break of dawn
You won't get an answer on the phone
'Cause we'll be going strong
Well, come on in and make yourself at home
'Cause the party's still going on

Well, my mama's got a stand up bass in the corner
She's holding down the groove
Everybody's doing the second line
Dancing all around the room

My papa's in the kitchen, I wonder what he's fixing
It sure is smelling good
He's throwing everything he's got into the pot
He's gonna feed the whole neighborhood

Yeah, the party's still going on
We're gonna rock until the break of dawn
You won't get an answer on the phone
'Cause we'll be going strong
Well, come on in and make yourself at home
Because the party's still going on

Well now, nobody's thinking 'bout the hard times
All your worries just fly away
When you're moving your feet to that funky beat
And the band begins to play

You can forget about all the bad news
And how the wind may blow
Just come on down to Camp Street, y'all
And let your troubles go

And have the party's still going on
We're gonna rock until the break of dawn
You won't get us on the telephone
'Cause we'll be going strong
Come on in and make yourself at home
Because the party's still going on

Yeah, the party's still going on
We're gonna rock until the break of dawn
You won't get an answer on the telephone
Because we'll be going strong

Come on in and make yourself at home
We're gonna have us whole lotta fun
Well, come on in and make yourself at home
Because the party's still going on
