Havin' A Party Lyrics
Yeah, clap your hands
We're having a party,
dancing to the music
played by the D.J.
on the radio
The Cokes are in the icebox,
popcorn's on the table
Me and my baby, yeah,
we're out here on the floor, oh yeah
So, Mister, Mr. D.J.
keep those records playing
coz I'm having
such a good time,
dancing with my baby
Everybody's swinging,
Sally's doing that twist now
If you playrequests now,
I've got a few for you
Play that one called "Soul Twist".
Play that one called "I Know"
Don't forget them "Mashed Potatoe"
no other songs will do
So, Mister, Mr. D.J.
keep those records playing
coz I'm having
such a good time,
dancing with my baby
Having a party
So, Mister, Mr. D.J.
keep those records playing
coz I'm having
such a good time,
dancing with my baby
Having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
on the radio
Yeah
We're having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
yeah
on the radio
bring it way down now
We're having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
on the radio
We're having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
where is it
on the radio
just two more times
We're having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
on the radio
We're having a party
Everybody's swinging
dancing to the music
on the radio
Yeah, yeah, oh oh
