lyrics:

People gather all around the square
Hear the laughing in the evening air
Swirl, mingle with the songs that brought us there,
Brought us all there

Everybody spread their lawn chairs ’round
Out on the grass and the stars shine down
Carl king’s big brass band plays that circus sound, circus sound

I don’t want to go home
Can we stay right here for a couple more songs?

I don’t want to go home...

While the music is playing, while it's playing

Every summer when the corn is high
There’s a weekend when the streets are lined
with hot rod cars driven in from another time, another time

every car has got the radio on
golden oldies and we're singing along
dancing on the sidewalks to those drifter's songs,
marvelettes songs

I don’t want to go home...

Round the campfire faces glow
The Gonzales brothers came here so
We’re singing all the songs everyone knows, everyone knows

I don't want to go home...
