Song title: Party lights
(Clark) by Claudine Clark (Chancellor 1113), 1962
Party lights
(Party lights, I see the party lights
Wo
(They're red 'blue 'green)
Lights
(Everybody in the crowd's there)
Mama, I wanna go go go go go go, yeah yeah
Well, Mama dear, tell me, do you hear?
We're partying tonight
I tell you, I can't sleep
Because across the street
Wo oh I see the party lights
Chorus:
I see the lights, I see the party lights
They're red 'blue 'green
Everybody in the crowd's there
But you won't let me make a scene
Well, Mama dear, look here, oh dear
There goes Mary Lou
I see Tommy 'Joe oh oh 'Betty Sue
Oh oh 'there goes my boyfriend too
I see the lights...
(Chorus)
Listen to the party, Mama!
Well, Mama dear, look here, oh dear
I'm feeling oh so blue
They're doin' the twist, the fish, the mashed potatoes too
I fear I'm lookin' at you
I see the lights...
(Chorus)
They're doin' the fish, they're doin' the twist
The watusi, the mashed potatoes
I see the lights, I see the lights
They're doin' the bop, I wanna go
