I just can’t get away form a good time
It started out innocent enough
Hanging in the backyard working on my truck
Turning some wrenches, cranking’ some tunes
A typical Saturday afternoon
Next thing I know my neighbor Pete walked back
Said his weed wacker ran out of gas
We looked hard, couldn’t find a drop
Ended up at the fridge in the back of my shop
One cold one turned into four
Four’s got a way of turning into more
Bust out the wieners, bust out the buns
Fire up the grill, gonna have a little fun
It follows me around wherever I go
Just like a wake behind my old bass boat
One minute I’m just hanging around
Next thing you know a damn party breaks out
Hey, I’m just a victim of the circumstance
I’ve learned to make it all a part of my plans
It don’t matter how hard I try
I just can’t get away from a good time
We were cutting’ it up and telling some jokes
Talking Nascar and UFO’s
That chain-linked fence don’t keep out much
The rest of the block started showing on up
Ran out of charcoal, ran to the store
They were running the deal on cases of Coors
If you bought one it was regular price
but if you bought two it, you got a free bag of ice
Hell, so I bought four and it made me grin
I was walking out when pretty girls were walking in
You could say the stars just lined-up just right
But it ain’t luck man, it’s just my life
It follows me around wherever I go
Just like a wake behind my old bass boat
One minute I’m just hanging around
Next thing you know a damn party breaks out
Hey, I’m just a victim of the circumstance
I’ve learned to make it all a part of my plans
It don’t matter how hard I try
I just can’t get away from a good time
Oh No I can’t
I guess that ol truck’s gonna wait another day
Maybe two or three, it keeps going this way
Oh, but I don’t care, say what you want
Man, we only get to live it up once
It follows me around wherever I go
Just like a wake behind my old bass boat
One minute I’m just hanging around
Next thing you know a damn party breaks out
Yeah, It follows me around wherever I go
Just like a wake behind my old bass boat
One minute I’m just hanging around
Next thing you know a damn party breaks out
Hey, I’m just a victim of the circumstance
Can’t turn down a drink, can’t turn down a dance
It don’t matter how hard I try
I can’t get away,
I just can’t get away
I can’t get away from a good time
I just can’t get away
From a good time
(oh)
