Don't stop the music let it play one more song
The same one that's played tonight for so long
She's out with another I saw them tonight
Sitting there close together she knows that not right
So don't stop the music let it play one more song
The same one that's played tonight for so long
My pockets are empty I spent my last dime
But I've just got to hear that song one more time

Don't be mad at me Mister I know that it's wrong
But I want you to hear the words of that song
So don't stop the music don't make me go home
I know she's not there and I cry all night long
So don't stop the music...
