Jan & Dean - A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight Lyrics

Come along, get ready, wear your grand brand-new gown
For there's going to be a meeting in this good good old town
When you know everybody and they all know you
And you get a rabbit's foot to keep away them hoodoos

When you hear the preachin' has begin
Bend down low for to drive away your sin
When you get religion you'll wanna shout and sing
There'll be a hot time in old town tonight

My baby, when you hear them bells go ding-a-ling
All turn around and sweetly you must sing
When the birds dance too, and the poets will all join in
There'll be a hot time in old town tonight

There'll be girls for everybody in this good good old town
There's Miss Gonzola Davis and Miss Gondoola Brown
There's Miss Henrietta Caesar, and she's all dressed in red
I just hug and kiss her, and to me then she said

"Please, oh please, oh do not let me fall
You are mine and I love you best of all
You be my man, I'll have no man at all
There'll be a hot time in old town tonight!"

My baby, when you hear them bells go ding-a-ling
All join around and sweetly you must sing
When the birds dance too, and the poets will all join in
There'll be a hot time in old town tonight
