"Party Girl" is an unreleased song by Lana Del Rey. It was recorded in 2010 and the first version of the song leaked on February 23, 2014. It was reportedly produced by Blockhead.[S 1] It is not registered to any music publishing service.
Background[]
It should not be confused with "St. Tropez", another song by Del Rey registered as "Party Girl". The song shares its instrumental with "Daytona Meth" and its respective demo, as well as Daniel Jordan's "Last Day Alive", which is known to have been produced by Blockhead.
On May 13, 2016, a second version of the song leaked from which half of Del Rey's vocals are missing. A third version was reliably scrobbled on last.fm by an insider.[S 2]

Lyrics[]
Version 1[]
I'm his little downtown baby doll
I'm his little downtown baby doll
He likes to come and hear me sing rock and roll
And watch me when I'm workin' on the silver pole
I'm his little downtown baby doll
Doesn't mind what I do for work at all
'Cause you live like you're rich when you're beautiful
I fill it up, work it out, night falls, I'm a star
If you want it supersize, I can do that for ya
If you want it double fries, I can do that for ya
If you want a cola, I can make it colder
If you want a bad girl, uh, nobody's bolder
And if you want the queen of New York
Then you better call me, me
I'm his little downtown baby doll
Trouble on the train to the festival
Come and get your girl, yo, he gets the call
Come and picks me up at the Bowery ball
I'm his little downtown baby doll
Everybody tells him I'm trouble, y'all
Doesn't really care 'cause he likes to fall
And of the working girls, I'm the worst of them all
If you want it supersize, I can do that for ya
If you want it double fries, I can do that for ya
If you want a cola, I can make it colder
If you want a bad girl, uh, nobody's bolder
And if you want the queen of New York
Then you better call me, me
Little girl, you gonna get me fired
Lucky for you that I'm so inspired
By every way you move and the things that you do
I think that I gotta hold onto you
I say yeah, yeah, I say yeah, you
I say yeah, yeah, I say yeah, you, oh
If you want it supersize, I can do that for ya
If you want it double fries, I can do that for ya
If you want a cola, I can make it colder
If you want a bad girl, uh, nobody's bolder
And if you want the queen of New York
Then you better call me, me
