Good Time

Alan Jackson · 34 Number Ones [2010]

Work, work all week long

Punchin' that clock dusk 'til dawn

Countin' the days 'til friday night

That's when all the conditions are right

For a good time, I need a good time.



And I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep and I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



I cashed my check, cleaned my truck

Put on my hat, forgot about work

Sun goin down, head across town

Pick up my baby and turn it around.



Good time, oh, I need a good time

Oh, I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep and I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



--- Instrumental ---



A pig in the ground, beer on ice

Just like ol' Hank taught us about

Singin' along, Bosephus song

Rowdy friends all night long

Good time, Lord, we having a good time



Yeah, I've been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep and I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



--- Instrumental ---



Heel, toe, dosie-do

Scootin' my boots, swingin' doors

B & D Kicks and Dunn

Honky tonk heaven, double shotgun.

Good time, Lord, we havin' a good time



'Cause I've been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



Shot of tequila, beer on tap

Sweet southern woman sit on my lap

G with an O, O with a D

T with an I and M and an E.



And a good time, good time

I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep I wanna have fun

Time for a good time.



--- Instrumental ---



A shot of tequila, beer on tap

A good lookin' woman sit on my lap

G with an O, O with a D

T with an I and M with an E

That spells good time, a good time.



Oh, I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



--- Instrumental ---



Twelve o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four

Five o'clock, we know where that's gonna go

Closing the doors, shutting them down

Head for that waffle house way across town

Good time, oh we're having a good time



Yeah, I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time.



Oh, I been working all week and I'm tired

I don't wanna sleep I wanna have fun

It's time for a good time

Oh yeah, a good time

I need a good time

Yeah, good time...
