You put your dollar down
You want to paint the town
But then you never, never, never know
How red the lights can be
When you're alone with me
You live so fast, why don't you take it slow

And when you find your card up on the tabletops
And dear, you never, never, never know
How lovely life can be
When you're alone with me
You live so fast, why don't you take it slow

Tell me again
I'm everything I know I am
Poor darling dear
You never know the party's here

Tell me again
I'm wonderful, I know I am
Poor darling dear
You never know the party's here

Oh mister, where you are
Is smoke on his cigar
And then you never, never, never know
How lovely life can be
When you're alone with me
You live so fast, why don't you take it slow, slow, slow down

Tell me again, again
I'm everyone I know I am
Poor darling dear
You never know the party's here

Tell me again
I'm wonderful, I know I am
Poor darling dear, dear
You never know the party's here
You never know the party's here, right here, man
You never know the party's here, I'm here, man
You never know the party's here
