Merle Travis

Merle Robert Travis (November 29, 1917 – October 20, 1983) was an American country and Western singer, songwriter, and musician born in Rosewood, Kentucky. His lyrics often discussed the life and exploitation of coal miners. Among his many well-known songs are "Sixteen Tons", "Re-Enlistment Blues" and "Dark as a Dungeon". However, it is his masterful guitar playing and his interpretations of the rich musical traditions of his native Muhlenberg County, Kentucky for which he is best known today. "Travis picking", a syncopated style of finger picking, is named after him. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970 and elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1977. more »

Tonight, I find out
Just what you're all about
-I'm the one that's come looking for you
I got the bottle, baby It's all you-
Showed up to the room about 3 or 4
Ladies running, running right out the door

We came here to party like
Its going out (oh shit)

We'll do this the whole night
This could be what we needed
-We can do what we want to-
A single melody to give this meaning
-This memory is making moves-

We came here to party like
Its going out of style

I'm ready to go
I got the bacardi
We got the bottle topped
Who's ready for more?
Let's start this party
We got everything you're looking for

We came here to party like
Its going out (oh shit)

We'll do this the whole night
This could be what we needed
-We can do what we want to-
A single melody to give this meaning
-This memory is making moves-[x2]

(I'll be there not far behind)
