Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once again, everybody, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, New Orleans
It's our home away from home
[Verse 2]
We're having a party
Dancing to the music
Played by the DJ
On the radio
[Verse 3]
The cokes are in the icebox
Popcorn's on the table
And me and my baby
Are out here on the floor
[Verse 4]
And so listen, mister DJ
Keep those records playing
'Cause I'm having such a good time
Dancing with my baby
[Verse 5]
Everybody's swinging
Sally's doing the twist now
If you take requests, I've
Got a few for you
[Verse 6]
Play that song called, Soul Twist
Play that one called, I Know
Don't forget them, Mashed Potatoes
No other song will do
[Verse 7]
And so mister, mister DJ
Keep those records playing
'Cause I'm having such a good time
Dancing with my baby
[Verse 8]
So mister, mister DJ
Keep those records playing
'Cause I'm having such a good time
Dancing with my baby
[Verse 9]
Having a party, come on
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 10]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 11]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 12]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On that radio
[Verse 13]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 14]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 15]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 16]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 17]
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio

Having a party
Everybody's swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
[Verse 19]
Thank you guys, we love you
