What A Party
Tom Jones · Other Songs - Tom Jones
Standing in the corner shouting "Shout, sister, shout!"
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)
The girl wore a dress with no shoes on
The big tenor man really blew his horn
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)
Somebody called a cop about half past four
He really just couldn't get through that door
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man he sure could wail away!)
What a party! Lordy, Lordy!
(Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!)
Where was Jodie when the lights went out?
