[00:01:47] They come out there to party

[00:01:49] They come out to party man

[00:01:50] They didn't come out to hear

[00:01:52] All that jive mess you talking about

[00:01:55] You standing up in the corner

[00:01:57] With a bottle of champagne taking about Harry

[00:02:01] Joe and Dick and Bobby and what they ain't got

[00:02:08] And they live down in the lower development homes

[00:02:13] And you won't even help

[00:02:15] You won't even buy 'em a drink

[00:02:16] Is that any way to meet them
