"Life 'O' The Party" lyrics

This is the life of the party
We gon' do it right!

So you're having a party?
Goody for you
All the beautiful people going to be there
Yeah, that's cool (That's cool)
You know you're gonna have a good time
Because you got the news (Got the news)
That the life o' the party
Is going to party with you (Is gon' party with you)
We're doing our own thing (Oh yeah)
'Til the sun come up ('Til the sun come up)
Sweet Candy going to be there (Uh-huh)
Yeah, it's gonna be rough
She ain't got no off switch
And neither do I
When you read it in the paper tomorrow
You gon' hang your head and cry (Woo!)

We gonna have us a party
All are welcome too (Ooh!)
We ain't down with nobody
Don't party like we do (Party like we do)
Once we get it started
We gotta go all night (All night! Uh!)
This is the life o' the party (Oh, lord...)
We gon' do it right

Why party in your own yard
When you can party in mine?
All the beautiful people gonna be there
Putting the "i" in "fine"
Throw the records out my window (Uh, oh!)
CDs out the door
Might as well give it to the milkman (What?!)
But we don't want it no more (Don't want it no more)
Everybody can smell this funk, y'all (Woo!)
Down in Atlanta, GA (What you say?!)
Everybody, even Dre and 'em, know it's okay (Y'all know it's okay)
Hey! We don't need any tripping, y'all, on this special day
We just called to let you know
You better not come if you can't stay — hey!

We gonna have us a party (Oh!)
All are welcome too
We ain't down with nobody
That don't party like we do
Once we get it started (Once we get it started)
We gotta go all night (We gotta go all night!)
This is the life o' the party (Uh)
We gon' do it right — (Horns!)

What's it—what it's—what's it gonna take ya? Yeah
To get your booty soaking-wet?
You and me closer, baby, that's a bet

I'm the life of the party
As long as I got your body
Shaking like a leaf on a tree
Cutie, come dance with me
You and me, we got mad chemistry
Don't it make you wanna holler?
Come with the life of the party, y'all
We're still making dollars
Twenty-five years to life
The judge sentenced me to hard labor with a knife
Making cuts for ya'll (Oh!)
Lord... keeping the party packed and wall-to-wall
I don't care what they say
"He don't play the hits no more
Plus, I thought he was gay"
But it ain't nothing if it ain't fun
My voice is getting higher and I ain't never had my nose done!
(Look out! Uh... uh...)
All the purple hippies, bang your heads on the one

We gon' have us a party
All are welcome too (Sing, ma!)
We ain't down with nobody
Don't party like we do
Once we get it started (Once we get it started!)
We gotta go all night
This is the life o' the party (Hey!)
We gon' do it right (Ah-hey!)

We gonna have us a party
All are welcome too
We ain't down with nobody
Don't party like we do (We don't down with nobody who don't party!)
Once we get it started
We got to go all night (Yeah, ma!)
This is the life o' the party (Ah)
We gon' do it right

(Woo! Ha...)
Life o' the party
(Hey... hey, hey, hey...)
Life o' the party
