You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done

So, let the good times roll, let the good times roll
Don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Don't sit there mumblin' and talkin' trash
If you wanna have a ball
You gotta go out and spend some cash

And let the good times roll, let the good times roll
Don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Hey Mr. Landlord, lock up all the doors
When the police comes around
Tell 'em that the joint is closed

And let the good times roll, let the good times roll
Don't care if you're young or old
Go out and let the good times roll

Hey y'all, tell everybody, Mr. Jordan's in town
I got a dollar and a quarter, now I'm just rarin' to clown
But don't let nobody play me cheap
I got fifty cents more that I'm gonna keep

So, let the good times roll and let the good times roll
Don't care if you're young or old
Get together, let the good times roll

Hey, no matter whether it's rainy weather
Birds of a feather gotta stick together
So get yourself under control

Go out and get together
And let the good times roll

You only live but once
And when you're dead you're done
