Lyrics
The night tumbled down with ribbons and curls, fell straight into my arms just like a drunken girl, and lay there so helpless I had to give her a whirl so I go off the couch went and took on the world.
I'm the life of the party, everyone step aside, clear a path to my barstool I'm going to sit here all night, I'm the life of the party, any place, any time, any how, any way, any life but mine.
No one's expecting me, there ain't no one surprised, they all know my story, but they'll hear it again tonight, and if you think God is dead, Boy, just wait until closing time, When the war stories end and you march home to your wife.
It's a one-smoke drive but still I'm going to walk it tonight, you won't see my face until the dawn's early light, hell, Babe, if you could just see me tonight, I'm throwing down with the best, no, I can't lose tonight.
