Party People Songtext
von Joe South

Party people are such funny people
Happy people or so it seems
Uh, uh, huh, but party people are really lonely people
Phoney people who live only in dreams

′Cause when the music's gone
And the lights come on
And somebody says it′s time to go home
Those party people
Those party people
Sometimes cry when the party's over


Party people seem like cheery people
Oh, but they're weary people
With no place left to run
Lord, have mercy on party people
They′re such proud people
And they′re loud people living only for fun

So they numb their minds
With a sparkling wine
And though they may deny that it's true
Those party people
Those very same party people
Sometimes cry when the party′s over

So they numb their minds
With a bottle of wine
And though they may deny that it's true
Those party people
Those party people
Sometimes cry when the party′s over
When the party's over
When it′s over
When it's over
