Sure We Had A Wonderful Time Last Night

by Clause Demetrius Fleecie Moore recording of 1999 from Let the Good Times Roll: The Music of Louis Jordan (MCA 12042) I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did I sure had a wonderful time last night Really blew my lid Went to a party, I recollect that much But after four or five, you know I lost my touch I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did I had a whale of good time last night Really got myself some kicks I sure had a wonderful time last night Took me right back to the sticks Between that hillbilly band and old Uncle Zeke And that new atomic beverage that they called "Sneaky Pete" I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did Sure had a wonderful time last night Don't know how I got to bed Sure had a wonderful time last night Come here, feel this lump on my head They say I got kinda noisy And started to shout Four big bouncers grabbed me But I threw them out I sure had a wonderful time last night Least wise they tell me I did Sure had a wonderful time last night Really had myself some fun Sure had a wonderful time last night Didn't get home until about half past one You know I'd like to take you with me the next time I go But where the heck was it? Sure would like to know But I sure had a wonderful time last night
