Lyrics

Party Time

Summertime is gone
And I just wanna lose you
That I don't wanna see you any more
Forget about the sun
Yeah, I want my city
Yeah, I want what's pretty too

Party time, party time
Party time, party time

Take me to the place
That makes me happy
Yeah, I think, I'm ready too
Don'tcha know my name?
I knew it yesterday
We don't have much to say

Party time, party time
Party time, party time

Summertime is gone
And I just wanna lose you
Yeah, I don't wanna see you
Forget about the sun
Yeah, I want my city
I want what's pretty, too

Party time, party time
Party time, party
