Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Talkin' 'bout a party, party
Everybody sing, party, party
Everybody come party, party
Everybody one of you, party, party
Party, party, party
Everyone come party, party, listen
[Verse 2]
I reach the plane and I go to Connecticut
Hear the people talking, they want me to do my reggae stuff
Go to Boston, and they acting the same way too
All of Philadelphia, they want me to do my thing
[Verse 3]
Make that party, party
Everybody just party, party
Singing 'bout party, party
Everyone come party, party, listen
[Verse 4]
Don't want to be a liar
I want to tell the truth
To each and everyone
I want to do my reggae stuff now
I am from Jamaica and
I want to do my Jamaican stuff
Everywhere I go, I feel I'll keep on doing
[Verse 5]
Talkin' 'bout a party, party
In that party, party
Come, everybody, come party
Somebody come and help me now
Woah, eh, hey
Listen, mercy
[Verse 6]
Mercy, get the feelin', yeah
Uh
Uh, oh
Party, party
Party, oh-ho
Everyone
They think it's my birthday
And I'm gonna have a party
Woah, ha, ha
Gonna be with each other, talkin' one another
Dance with each other
Eh, hey, hey
