Where was Jodie when the lights went out Standing in the corner shouting, shout, sister, shout! [Chorus:] What a party! Lordy, Lordy! (Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could wail away!) What a party! Lordy, Lordy! (Big fat guy, oh man, he sure could play!) The girl wore a dress with no shoes on The big tenor man really blew his horn [Chorus] Somebody called a cop about half past four He really just couldn't get through that door [Chorus] Where was Jodie when the lights went out?
