Richard Thompson - Crash The Party lyrics

We were walking down the street, we were trying to pretend We were wild, wild boys on a wild weekend We were down in the dumps and we didn't have to try hard Our old town was just like a graveyard We come around a corner and what do we hear Oh rock and roll music coming loud and clear The joint is jumping, no hesitation We're all giving ourselves free invitation Ah, we crashed the party, oh, we crashed the party You gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party There was Monks and Eddie, and Weasel and Freddy There was the gang of four, we beat down the door Oh we crashed the party The fence was electric, the dogs were mean It was just like Stalag 17 When we rung on the bell they come for the business So we got while the getting was good Yeah, we crashed the party, oh, we crashed the party You gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party Oh, we crashed the party, yeah, we crashed the party It would have been a sin if we didn't get in So we crashed the party We did the alligator and the mashed potato Oh, we cracked some heads and broke some hearts Oh we crashed the party We got in the cellar, or just about We got right in but we couldn't get out Weasel got stuck in the bathroom window And pushing didn't do any good Yeah, we crashed the party, oh, we crashed the party You gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party Well we got on the roof of the house next door Jumped down twenty nine feet to the floor Landed in the arms of an amazon queen Dancing with her Johnny Be Good Yeah, we crashed the party, oh, we crashed the party You gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party You gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party Hey, you gotta put up a fight on a Saturday night So we crashed the party
