Lyrics

The guys are done
Another sixty hour week
The boss fired Jimmy
Jimmy freaked
He said the only thing
I did was showed up late
Jimmy got his last check
From the State

He said
Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun tonight

The time is seven
In walks a woman called Heaven
A sidewalk preacher
A third grade teacher
She said
Jimmy you ain't got it bad
My man left me for another man

She said
Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun tonight

On the corner of K Street
Disco is still alive
A cool cat lookin' like
John Travolta
Caught Miss Heaven's eye
He struck a pose
She started to laugh
Mr. Cool Cat started to cry
Jimmy said
Hey brother you're all right
Come hang with us tonight

Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun tonight

It's last call 2a.m.
The bartender heard Jimmy sob
He said
Jimmy I like your style
I'd Like to offer you a job
Mr. Cool Cat and Miss Heaven
Are flirting at the end of the bar
Then a cowboy with flip flops on
Started in with that familiar song

Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun tonight
Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun
Gonna have fun
I say
Oh, yeah where are we going
Gonna have fun in the city
Life too short to waste on worry
Gonna have fun tonight
