Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I brought you roses just to sweet you off your feet
Oh they'll be plenty of time for us to make love
But how about first we celebrate whats up
How does this sound
The city is ours
Let's take it downtown
Don't try to hide your smile
Let's go all out
The way we always do when we're together
Don't waste no time let's go
Now girl
Put on the dancing shoes tonight
Slip on the dress the one I like
All eyes on us cause we are the life of the party baby yeah
Sip a little something to break the ice
Glass in the air we're feeling nice
On the dance floor we're the life of the party baby yeah
Girl (girl)
The way we move
Nobody does it better
And under the moon and stars
I could stay like this forever
With you girl
When the D.J. play our song
We got together
And show them how it's done
Put on the dancing shoes tonight
Slip on the dress the one I like
All eyes on us cause we are the life of the party baby yeah
Sip a little something to break the ice
Glass in the air we're feeling nice
On the dance floor we're the life of the party baby yeah
Off we roll to the middle of the floor
Do your thing now do your thing girl
Off we go to the middle of the floor
Life of the party hey hey
Off we go to the middle of the floor
Do your thing now do your thing girl
Off we go to the middle of the floor
Do your thing baby

Slip on the dress the one I like

Glass in the air we're feeling nice
On the dance floor we're the life of the party baby yeah
Off we go, onto the floor, life of the party baby
In “Life of the Party,” Wilson Charlie sings about a couple who are going out for the night and planning to have a good time together. The singer begins by complimenting his date, giving her roses and telling her that they will have plenty of time for intimacy later. Instead, they are going to go out and enjoy the city together. He invites her to put on her dancing shoes and a dress that he likes, telling her that they will be the center of attention and the “life of the party.”
The singer emphasizes how he and his date move together in a way that nobody else can, feeling forever young and alive under the stars. He promises to show everyone how it’s done on the dance floor when their song plays, and they dance together until the end of the night. The song’s upbeat tempo and lyrics encourage listeners to let loose and enjoy life, even if only for a night.
