A friend of mine told me one early mornin´
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
Said tonight there´s gonna be a party goin´ on
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
He said: „If you can enjoy a real nice affair

(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
Then you´ll make it your business to be right there“
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)

He said in fact: „Meet me

(We´re gonna have us a ball today)

(Meet me at Mary´s place, ho)

He said: „There´s one thing I that want you to know
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
You´re gonna have a good time before you go“
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
He said: „There´s one more thing that I´m gonna guarantee
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)
Got to have fun if you´re a man like me“
(Over at Mary´s place, ho)

If you wanna have fun, meet me
