Hey, everybody, let's have some fun
You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done

So let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Don't sit there mumblin', talkin' trash
If you wanna have have a ball
You gotta spend some cash

So let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Hey Mister Landlord, lock up all the doors
When the police comes around
Just tell them that the joint is closed

And let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get up and get together and let the good times roll

Hey tell everybody
That Mr King's in town
I got a dollar and a quarter
And I'm just rarin' to clown
But don't let nobody play me cheap
I got fifty cents more that I'm gonna keep

Let the good times roll
Let the good times roll
I don't care if you're young or old
Get together and let the good times roll

No matter whether rainy weather
Birds of a feather gotta stick together
So get yourself under control
Go out and get together and let the good times roll
