We're Not Here for a Long Time (We're Here for a Good Time) - Huey Lewis & The News

There’s a party down on the corner, do you want to go?

They got rhythm, a little blues, and a whole lot of soul

I don’t care what you’ve got to say

You’re comin' with me anyway

We’re not here for a long time

We’re here for a good time

I know it’s hard makin' a living every day

And I know how hard you’ve been workin'

But now it’s time to play

Tell that wolf waitin' at your door

He’ll just have to wait some more

We’re not here for a long time

We’re here for a good time

Some say the world is ending

It might just come to pass

Ain’t no use in pretending

Tonight could be the last

Tell the mailman to hold the mail

Get ready to wag your tail

We’re not here for a long time

We’re here for a good time

Some say the world is ending

Who knows if it’s true?

Ain’t no use in pretending

There’s not much we can do

Leave a message for those who call

We’re out havin' us a ball

We’re not here for a long time

We’re here for a good time
