Escapade (The Good Time 7") Lyrics

[Intro]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let me take you on an escapade
Let's go!

That is so funky
That is so funky

[Verse 1]
As I was walkin' by
Saw you standin' there with a smile
Lookin' shy, you caught my eye
Thought you'd want to hang for a while
Well, I'd like to be with you
And you know it's Friday, too
I hope you can find the time
This weekend to relax and unwind

[Pre-Chorus]
My mind's tired
I've worked so hard all week (Ooh, all week)
Cashed my check
I'm ready to go
I promise you
I'll show you such a good time
[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)

[Post-Chorus]
Es-ca-pade
We'll have a good time
Es-ca-pade
Leave your worries behind
Es-ca-pade
You can be mine
Es-ca-pade
An escapade

[Pre-Chorus]
So don't hold back
Just have a good time, yeah
We'll make the rules up
As we go along
And break them all
If we're not havin' fun

[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (On an escapade, baby)
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)
[Bridge]
Let me take you on an escapade

[Pre-Chorus]
My mind's tired
I've worked so hard all week (Ooh, all week)
Cashed my check
I'm ready to go
I promise you
I'll show you such a good time

[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (On an escapade, baby)
