All the smoke got smoked and the drinks got drunk All the jokes got joked, deep thoughts got thunk A few fights were bruised, some good songs got sung Bad lines got used and folks had their fun But when the lights come on and the music fades Last call gets called and the tabs get paid It's time to get moving, finish that beer You don't have to go home but you can't stay here Just another long night on this side of town Some came to get high, some came to get down down down Some are here to make noise with all their rowdy friends Or maybe hoping for romance when the evening ends But when the lights come on and the music fades Last call gets called and the tabs get paid It's time to get moving, make them drinks disappear You don't have to go home but you can't stay here When the lights come on and the music fades Last call gets called and the moves get made Say your goodbyes, make them drinks disappear You don't have to go home but you can't stay here You gotta get movin' Let me make it clear You don't have to go home but you can't stay here You don't have to go home but you can't stay here
