Indebted to the original by Louis Jordon

Decided to make this more like a song... more repetition of the hook.

Let the good times roll,
I said, let the good times roll.
let ’em free your soul
just let those good times roll.

You may be hungry, unhappy, down and out,
but don't you let them, count you out.
Let the good times roll.

Get up, get going, and get on down,
don't you let them, see you frown.
Let the good times roll.

No job? No car? No house? No spouse?
Don't you let them see you mouse, oh no…
Let the good times roll.

(Refrain)

It's time to get up and dance,
let them see you prim and prance.
Let the good times roll.

Do something kind, do something nice,
give to others some good advice.
Let the good times roll.

Don't let the blues get you down,
track those good times like a hound.
Let the good times roll.

(Refrain)

Remember the child in you,
and don't think twice.
Let the good times roll.

You can still learn from this advice,
so grab yourself a great big slice.
Let the good times roll.

Work is where you make it.
Learning's where you take it.
Let the good times roll.

(Refrain)

I said, Let ‘em roll… roll… roll…
Let those good times rooolllll…
