lyrics

Six in the morning in my room at the Cecil
Ninety four fifty a week stretches me out a little
Six in the morning, it’s dope and Magnum, it’s
Borrow me two bucks so I can get to work again

I’m having a party tonight 
Party by myself

Lunch wagon left, I stayed at my desk
I said I wasn’t hungry, nobody questioned me
I bought three 40 ounce Magnums and the cigarettes I craved all day
And I visit my dope man at Sixth and Broadway

I’m having a party tonight 
Party by myself

Lock the door the word could get around
I got beer and cigarettes
I got a ninth floor view of Main Street
And a working TV set
 
Six in the evening in my room at the Cecil
Captain Kirk don’t care about my breath or ’bout my bloodshot eyes
My beer is my friend and my rock is my friend
And my friends are why I’m getting up tomorrow again
 
I'm having a party tonight 
Party by myself
