Lyric Dixie Toot

(R. Stewart / R. Wood)

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
