(Party lights, I see the party lights)

Whoa-oh

(They're red and blue and green)

Lights

(Everybody in the crowd's there)

Now, now I wanna go-go-go, sounds good

(Please let me make the scene)

Yeah-yeah-yeah

(C'mon, mama)

Lately, mama dear a-tell me do you hear

The partying tonight?

I tell you, I can't sleep

Because across the street

Oh-oh, oh-oh, I see the party lights

(C'mon, mama)

I see the lights

(I see the lights)

I see the party lights

They're red and blue and green

(They're red and blue and green)

While everybody, in the crowd is there

But you won't let me make the scene

(C'mon, c'mon mama)

Hey, mama dear a-look here, look here

(Do-do, do-do, de-do)

There goes Mary Lou

(Mary Lou)

I see Tommy and Joe

Oh-oh, and Betty and Sue

Whoa-oh, oh-oh

And there goes my boyfriend, too

I see the lights

(I see the lights)

I see the party lights

They're red and blue and green

(They're red and blue and green)

While everybody, in the crowd is there

But you won't let me make the scene

(C'mon, c'mon mama)

Break>

The scene is good mama!

Let's go and party

Judy's bringin John

Just around to party

Goin to his party

They say that boy's for real, hoo-hoo

Yeah!

Hey, mama dear, a-look a-here, look here

And see me constant blue

(Ooo, sad and blue)

They're doin' the twist

The fish, the mashed potatoes, too

I'm here a-lookin like you

I see the lights

(I see the lights)

I see the party lights

They're red and blue and green

(They're red and blue and green)

While everybody, in the crowd is there

But you won't let me make the scene

(C'mon, c'mon mama)

They're doin' The Fish

Todd's doin' The Twist

The Wahtusi, the Mash Potatoes

I see the lights (everybody)

I see the lights (is there)

They're doin The Bop, I wanna go

(C'mon mama, mama)

FADE OUT

I wanna go (see the lights)

I wanna go (I see the party lights)

I wanna go (the red and blue and green)

I see the lights

I wanna go.
