G
Goin to have some fun.

Now, whenever I get up
And cant find what I need,
I just make it down to rose maries
And get something quick to eat.
Its not a bad way to make a living
And I aint complainin none.
For I can blow my plum and drink my rum
And then go on home and have my fun

Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see soft gut
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah
Goin to have some fun.

Now, if someone offers me a joke
I just say no thanks.
I try to tell it like it is
And keep away from pranks.
Well, everytime, you know, when the well breaks down
I just go pump on it some.
Rose marie, she likes to go to big places
And just sit there waitin for me to come.

Goin to acapulco
Goin on the run.
Goin down to see soft gut
Goin to have some fun.
Yeah
Goin to have some fun.
