Sitting on my back door wondering which way to go   The sun's shining on my back and it hurts (child)   The FM station plays another bad 45   And it's been so long since I had a good time   It's been so long since I had a good time      Never wrecked my head on a bandstand    in the trombone or clarinet line   When I come in heat on Bourbon Street for Mardi Gras   When those for a cryin' just stay behind in the bar   'Cause it's been so long since I had a good time   Yeah it's been so long since I had a good time      I'm gonna lose control of my powers    I might even lose my trousers   Smash some glass, act like trash if I want   Wear a skirt be a flirt if I want   'Cause it's been so long since I had a good time   This prodigal man from Dixieland needs a good time   right now, show me a good time right now      You better take it while you can   You gotta get it while you can      And when the Man Upstairs he calls me    He'll say "It's your turn son to come"   Don't play the blues down in old Toulouse for me   Let sleighbells ring and children sing in the street   And tell all of my friends that I had a good time   Open up the sky won't you ride me high    Let's have a good time   And if I'm late at heaven's gate blame a good time   And when the angels sing I will join in    Let's have a good time really      I took my luck, I didn't give a fuck, I had a good time   Tell all my friends only all my best to have a good time   Goodbye
