Party Girl
Dan Shay Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All of them boys are spraying down and shining their wheels
And all of them girls are getting pretty, putting on heels
'Cause downtown there's a cover band warming up for the fever jam
Blondes' in the bathroom washing X's off their hands
All of them party people stacking up in a line
Pushing up on each other like it's raining outside
But I'ma stay right here so we can disappear
Yeah, I've been waiting all night

Take me to the party girl in the same t-shirt
That you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that we're spinning, bare feet on the floor
And the living room light got me begging for more
Of that party girl strutting down the hall
Like a beauty queen, long legs and all
Got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl (party girl)
(Party girl)

I don't need all them humming, buzzing neon signs
Long as you got that come and get me look in your eyes
Yeah I'ma stay right here, so we can disappear
We can do it up right

Take me to the party girl in the same t-shirt
That you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that we're spinning, bare feet on the floor
And the living room light got me begging for more
Of that party girl strutting down the hall
Like a beauty queen, long legs and all
Got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl

Take me to the party girl
Wearing nothing but that t-shirt
Laying down on an old love seat
Nothing better than you and me

And that party girl in the same t-shirt
That you wear to bed while the ceiling fan turns
To the rhythm that we're spinning, bare feet on the floor
And the living room light got me begging for more (you got me beggin' for more)
Of that party girl strutting down the hall
Like a beauty queen, long legs and all
Got me melting in the cushion of an old love seat
Don't get much better than you and me
And this party girl (take me to the party)





Ain't nothing better than you and me, girl
Yeah, so gimme that, gimme that girl

The song's chorus repeats the desire for this party girl, emphasizing the familiarity and comfort they have with each other, as well as the simplicity of their night.

a different kinda song than you'd normally hear, that's what makes it so amazing, and possibly the best song on the album! I wanna play it on guitar badly

@pinkunicornglitter

This album is gold, definitely worth the wait! :) 

@Jasselove23

I thought it will be an upbeat song just by the title. I like how it is a slower song.

@shellyk1537

This is my favorite song on the album!!  I cannot get enough of it. These guys are SO talented and I have not stopped listening to this CD since I got it last week.
