I Guess I Had A Real Good Time Last Night
Moe Bandy · Love Is What Life's All About (Columbia) [1978]
I woke up this morning feeling like I never felt before
My head aches my eyes are red and I hurt places I ain't hurt before
Though I don't remember I really don't believe I had a fight
But I've got all the symptoms so I guess I had a real good time last night.
When I opened my eyes I can't believe the first thing that I see
A woman who's a stranger layin' there and starin' back at me
She said hello honey then she asked me if I'm gonna be alright
It's then I knew without a doubt I had myself a real good time last night.
I don't know how or where I went and I should don't remember what I done
But by the way she's smilin' now I really must have had a lot of fun
If I can just recall her name I'm almost sure that things will be alright
I'm telling you it must be true I had myself a real good time last night.
--- Instrumental ---
It must've been just after ten when she finally got me out of bed
I had a small construction crew working with a chainsaw in my head
Then I saw on my left hand a wedding band shining in the light
It was then I realized I had myself a real good time last night.
It was then I realized I had myself a real good time last night...
