Party Time
T. G. Sheppard Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's time to get you off my mind
Forget the life I left behind
and all those dreams that won't come true
Oh oh its party time
Its time for laugh and pass the wine
Its early and I'm feelin' fine
Darlin' ever since the day
Yes its time to go our separate ways
I've been searchin' for a way to be
for doing you so wrong
Now its time to call the heart
You know it wasn't all my fault
You cheated too but you were never caught
Your friends lied all along
Oh oh its party time
It's time to get you off my mind
It's early and I'm feeling fine
I'll soon be over you
It shouldn't take us very long
Another sip or two and you'll be gone
Another chorus of she done you wrong
And I'll be over you
Oh oh its party time
It's time to get you off my mind
It's early and I'm feeling fine
I'll soon be over you
Oh oh its party time
It's time to get you off my mind
Forget the life I left behind
and all those dreams that won't come true

Woah oh oh it’s party time. So so many memories from when my momma would be playing this on Friday nights getting ready to go out with her friends. Thank God she had her mom and dad to take care of us so she could get away. Miss my momma. Miss my grandma and grandpa.
