  • You're on the couch, blowin' up my phone
    You don't wanna come out, but you don't wanna be alone
    It don't take but two to have a little soiree
    If you're in the mood, sit tight right where you are, babe

    'Cause I'll be at your door in ten minutes
    Whatever you got on, girl, stay in it
    You ain't gotta leave the house to have a good time
    I'ma bring the good time home to you

    We'll have a house party, we don't need nobody
    Turn your TV off, break that boombox out
    We'll wake up all the neighbors 'til the whole block hates us
    And the cops show up and try to shut us down

    If you're gonna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party
    If you wanna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party

    Throw a neon t-shirt over the lamp shade
    I'll take the furniture, slide it out of the way
    Shakin' the floor, rattlin' the roof
    We'll go to town like they're in your livin' room

    Let's have a house party, we don't need nobody
    Turn your TV off, break that boombox out
    We'll wake up all the neighbors 'til the whole block hates us
    And the cops show up and try to shut us down

    If you're gonna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party
    If you wanna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party

    So I'll be at your door in ten minutes
    Whatever you got on, baby, stay in it
    You ain't gotta leave the house to have a good time
    I'ma bring the good time home to you

    We'll have a house party, we don't need nobody
    Turn your TV off, break that boombox out
    We'll wake up all the neighbors 'til the whole block hates us
    And the cops show up and try to shut us down

    If you're gonna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party
    If you wanna be a homebody
    We're gonna have a house party Writer/s: Jerry Flowers, Sam Lawry Hunt, Zachery Miller Crowell
