I was looking for a good time
I was down so low thought I'd never get up
Then a midnight lady with eyes of green
Said she didn't look much older than seventeen
She said, I'll take you to a place
That you've never seen
If your lookin' for a good time
Lookin' for a good time
Lookin' for a good time

She took me away downtown
To a smoky cafe called Barefoot George
There were other people walking
Then she knocked three times
She whispered to a guy he's a friend of mine
Said take off your shoes and come on inside
If your lookin' for a good time
Lookin' for a good time
Lookin' for a good time

Well the lights when on
And the lights when off
And the music stopped
And a man grabbed me from behind
And said ya just got caught
Well your under age and this here's a raid
I should take ya in
I'm gonna to do you a favor and let ya go
Don't ya let me catch you round here no more
Looking for a good time
Looking for a good time
Looking for a good time

When I got home with my bare feet
Daddy said he should have put me over his knee
And asked me where I've been till a quarter to three
Said looking for a good time
Looking for a good time
Looking for a good time
Looking for a good time
