Dolly Parton - The Party Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • As we were dressing to go out our little girl and boy
  • Came in and asked if they could go this time
  • We told them little girls and boys don't belong at parties
  • And that they should be in bed asleep by nine
  • The babysitter came in then and we kissed the kids goodbye
  • And told them that we'd be home soon and told them not to cry
  • Then we left for the party like we'd so often done
  • Thinkin' only of ourselves and not our little ones
  • The party started out wild and it grew wilder as the night wore on
  • With drinking laughing teling dirty jokes nobody thinkin' of home
  • Then the stranger feeling came over me and it chilled me to the bones
  • And I told my wife that we'd better leave the party
  • Cause I felt that we were needed at home
  • As we rode along I got to thinking of how the kids that mornin'
  • Had asked if we would take them to church the next day
  • And how I'd put 'em off like I'd so often done
  • By sayin' we'd probably get home too late
  • Then my thoughts were interrupted by the sound of sirens
  • As they cut through the still night air
  • Then we turned down our street that's when we saw the fire
  • The rest was like a nightmare
  • We took their little bodies to church the next day
  • Though we'd left the party early we still got home too late
