I’ve been hard up, tore down
The things I’ve been through
And the angels won’t take me away
And I’ve talked to Saint Peter
He won’t let me pass
So it looks like I’m going today
So let’s have a party and tell ’em I’m home
They’ll be wailing and will lay as well
And the devil will be dealing
The cards as they lay
So let’s have a party in hell
Washed up, worn out and down on my knees
But the angels won’t take me away
The bartender only serves
Brown liquor in hell
And that sure sounds like heaven to me
So let’s have a party and tell ’em I’m home
They’ll be Janice and Jimi as well
And Rick James will bring all the cocaine you want
So let’s have a party in hell
So let’s have a party and tell ’em we’re home
They’ll be No Show and Junior and Merle
And Jamie Johnson’ll be drinking from a brown paper bag
So let’s have a party in hell
