[Verse 1]
Why stop now?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Seven o'clock, eight o'clock, nine o'clock, ten
You wanna go home? Why? Honey, when?
We may never get this chance again
Let's party for the rest of the night

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
(Come on, let's)

[Verse 2]
Why leave now?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, one o'clock, two
Me, tired? Well, boo-hoo
I'm starting to fall in love with you
Let's party for the rest of the night

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Hit me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Why slow down?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Three o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock, six
Let's throw it all into the mix
And open up our bag of tricks
And party for the rest of the night
Hit it

[Chorus]
Woah, woah, yeah, yeah
We'll party for the rest of the night
Woah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We'll party for the rest of the night
Hit it

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
We never had an issue
We never had a fight
Someone must be doing
Something right

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Hit me

[Outro]
Party for the rest of the night
Every morning, yeah
Party through the night
Why stop? Why stop?

Warren Zevon (24 January 1947 – 7 September 2003) was an American rock singer-songwriter and musician. He’s known best for his dark and outlandish sense of humor.

Zevon’s life is a classic tale of someone caught-up in bipolar alcoholism, drug-dependence, paternity suits, and divorce – a virtual train wreck on two feet. Still, his writing stands out among songwriters as some of the most original, interesting (and, okay, bizarre) on record. He released 13 studio albums in his career.

Zevon was a session musician for the Everly Brothers in the early 1970s, and came into a circle of artists ranging from Waddy Wachtel to Jackson Browne to Linda Rhonstadt to Don Henley to Bonnie Raitt to Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham. That circle of friends cross-pollinated to create the California rock sound of the late 20th century. All of the artists just mentioned point to Zevon as a big influence on their music.
