Henry Krieger
Ain’t No Party
[Verse 1]
Yes, I knew you were married when I met you
Told myself that's the way it's got to be
But after all these years, the best of my life
My life has become a catastrophe

[Chorus]
'Cause sittin' home waitin' on a man who ain't comin'
Ain't no party, no no no
I'm sittin' here wishin' I had some ambition
To get me through
That wasn't always you

[Verse 2]
Don't I give you good lovin', sweet daddy
Every time she lets you slip away?
You're gonna tell her now that you love me
And you're gonna tell her today

[Chorus]
'Cause sittin' homе waitin' on a man who ain't comin'
Ain't no party, no no no
I'm sittin' here wishin' I had some ambition
To gеt me through
That wasn't always you
[Bridge]
Where's my party?
Where is my party?
Where's the champagne?
Where's the flowers?
I'm all dressed up in my party dress
And I been sittin' here for hours
This ain't no party
No no no no, it ain't no party, baby
Now it's been seven years
And it don't take a smarty
To realize
That even though my man throws confetti in my face
It still don't make it no party
This ain't no party
It ain't no party, baby!

[Outro]
My mama wants to know when you're gonna marry me
If you want me in your life, you better make me your wife
My dad is coming to town, I can't be messin' around!
Oh, you better tell me when you're gonna marry me
I want a wedding, honey!
Oh no, baby, you gotta marry me
