In The Basement, Part One Lyrics - Her Best - The Chess 50th Anniversary Collection - Etta James

In the Basement 

Ohh, now tell me where can you party, child, all night long? 

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah. 

Oh where can you go when your money gets low? 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

And if a storm is taking place, you can jam and still be safe 

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 

Where can you dance to any music you choose? 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement 

Oh, you got the comforts of home, a nightclub too. 

In the basement, whoa down in the basement. 

Theres no cover charge or fee and the food and drinks are free, 

In the basement, down in the basement
