(Let's Have A) Party
From the film "Loving You"
Composer(s): Jessie Mae Robinson
Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
and various other artists
Some people like to rock
Some people like to roll
But movin' and a groovin'
Gonna satisfy my soul
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight
I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a goon
But I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight
Now Honky Tonky Joe
Is knockin' at the door
Bring him in and fill him up
And sit him on the floor
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Oooh, let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send 'im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight
The meat is on the stove
The bread is gettin' hot
Everybody come and taste
The possum Poppa shot
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Let's have a party (Let's have a party)
Send `im to the store
An' let's buy some more
An' let's have a party tonight
We're really gonna have a party tonight

Alternate Version:
I feel it in my leg
I feel it in my shoe
Tell me pretty baby
If you think you feel it too
Let's have a party
Oooh, let's have a party
Send 'im to the store
And let's buy some more
And let's have a party tonight
So, baby paint your lips
And regulate your wig
And bring along a shovel
If you really wanna dig
Let's have a party
Oooh, let's have a party
Send 'im to the store
And let's buy some more
And let's have a party tonight
I've never kissed a bear
I've never kissed a goon
But I can shake a chicken
In the middle of the room
Let's have a party
Oooh, Let's have a party
Send 'im to the store
And let's buy some more
And let's have a party tonight
We're really gonna have a party tonight
