Lyrics:

Sue wants a barbecue, Sam wants to boil a ham
Grace votes for builabaise stew
Jake wants a weenie bake, stake and a layer cake
He'll get a tummy ache, too

We'll rent a tent or teepee
Let the town cryer cry
And if it's RSVP
This is what I'll reply

In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Tell 'em I'll be there
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Better save a chair

When the party's gettin' a glow on
Singin' fills the air
In the shank of the night, when the doings are right
You can tell 'em I'll be there

In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Tell 'em I'll be there
In the cool, cool, cool of the evening
Better save a chair

When the party's gettin' a glow on
Singin' fills the air
In the shank of the night, when the doings are right
You can tell 'em I'll be there

If there's room for one more and you need me why sure
You can tell 'em I'll be there
If I can climb out of bed, put a hat on my head
You can tell 'em I'll be there
