Lyrics for Song: Party On The Patio
Lyrics for Album: El Loco [1981]
I found an empty house in my neighborhood,
I knew that wer shouldn't but I thought we could.
Knew it wouldn't be hard to slide into the backyard,
Called all my friends and slipped a hundred to the guard.
We turned on the radio and had a party on the patio.
Betty's in the sauna and she's getting kind of hot,
Mary's in the icebox wishin' she was not.
Connie's in the whirlpool, Jimmy's tryin' to be cool,
Libby's in the bushes 'cause she's nobody's fool.
We turned the lights down low and had a party on the patio.
Heard the cops are coming so we tried to jump the fence,
Mary didn't make it and we haven't seen her since.
Connie had another drink, Jimmy simply couldn't think,
Billy G. Was passed out underneath the sink.
But everybody's gonna show for another party on the patio.

Party On The Patio
Party On The Patio stands as a vibrant example of ZZ Top's blues-rock evolution during the early 1980s. Released on the 1981 album El Loco, the track captures the band's signature sound, blending gritty guitar work with a driving rhythm section that defined their transition into a more polished era. While the group would soon achieve massive commercial success with their next record, this song showcases their enduring commitment to Southern rock roots and bluesy swagger. The recording highlights the trio's tight musicianship and their ability to craft infectious grooves that resonate with both longtime fans and new listeners. As part of a discography rich with energetic performances, the song remains a testament to the band's consistent ability to deliver high-energy rock anthems. |
