Lyrics

[Intro]

Ooh, yow

Woo

Ha-ha-ha, yeah

[Verse 1]

Now, listen

Not a dime, I can't a-pay my rent

I can barely make it through the week

Saturday night I'd like to make my girl

But right now I can't make ends meet, no

[PreChorus]

I'm always workin', slavin' every day

Gotta get a break from that same-old, same-old

I need a chance just to get away

If you could hear me think, this is what I'd say

[Chorus]

Don't need nothin' but a good time

How can I resist?

Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time

And it don't get better than this

[Verse 2]

Say, I spend my money on women and wine

But I couldn't tell you where I spent last night

I'm real sorry about the shape I'm in

I just-a like my fun every now and then

[PreChorus]

I'm always workin', slavin' every day

Gotta get a break from that same-old, same-old

I need a chance just to get away

If you could hear me think, this is what I'd say

[Chorus]

Don't need nothin' but a good time

How can I resist?

Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time

And it don't get better than this

[Bridge]

You see, I, I raise a toast to all of us

Who are breakin' our backs every day

If wantin' the good life is such a crime

Lord, then put me away, yeah

Here's to ya

[Bridge]

Hmm, guitar

[Chorus]

Don't need nothin' but a good time

How can I resist?

Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time

And it don't get better than this

Don't need nothin' but a good time

How can I resist?

Ain't lookin' for nothin' but a good time

And it don't get better than this

[Outro]

It don't get better, baby
