The rocking party tone of “The Rest of the Night” is subdued by the ambiguity of Zevon’s terminal condition at the time. The track features Tom Petty on backup vocals and Mike Campbell on guitar.
[Verse 1]
Why stop now?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Seven o'clock, eight o'clock, nine o'clock, ten
You wanna go home? Why? Honey, when?
We may never get this chance again
Let's party for the rest of the night
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
(Come on, let's)
[Verse 2]
Why leave now?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock, one o'clock, two
Me, tired? Well, boo-hoo
I'm starting to fall in love with you
Let's party for the rest of the night
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Hit me
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Why slow down?
Let's party for the rest of the night
Three o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock, six
Let's throw it all into the mix
And open up our bag of tricks
And party for the rest of the night
Hit it
[Chorus]
Woah, woah, yeah, yeah
We'll party for the rest of the night
Woah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We'll party for the rest of the night
Hit it
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
We never had an issue
We never had a fight
Someone must be doing
Something right
[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Yeah, yeah, woah-woah, yeah
Let's party for the rest of the night
Hit me

Party for the rest of the night
Every morning, yeah
Party through the night
Why stop? Why stop?
