	        D         D              C      D             C 
Want some whisky in your water, sugar in your tea? 
     D               C                 D         C 
What are these crazy questions they're asking of me? 
            D        C                D    C 
This is the craziest party that could ever be, 
      D           C                      D          C 
don't turn on the lights, 'cause I don't wanna see. 
 
(Chorus:) 
     D              C     G A    D              C     G A 
Mama told me not to come,   mama told me not to come, 
          D             C           G    A   
she said: That ain't no way to have fun, son! 
 
D           C                D             C 
Open up the window, let some air into this room, 
D           C                       D                 C 
I think I'm almost choking from the smell of stale perfume. 
        D                C                  D                C 
And the cigeratte you're smoking's 'bout to scare me half to death, 
D           C              D        C 
open up the window, let me catch my breath. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
D                         G    A         D    C G A D C G A D 
That ain't no way to have fun, son! Son, son! 
  
    D         C                 D               C 
The radio was blasting, someone knocking at the door, 
    D                 C                D                 C 
I'm looking at my girlfriend, she just passed out on the floor. 
     D            C              D          C 
I've seen so many things I ain't never seen before, 
      D            C               D            C 
don't know what it is, but I don't wanna see no more. 
 
(Chorus) 
 
D                         G    A 
That ain't no way to have fun, son! 
 
(Chorus)
