    Question let the good times roll

    I'm looking for a fairly recent song (probably from the last 2 years or so), sung by a woman (possibly more than one), that has a chorus that ends in "let the good times roll, let the good times roll". The second "times" is stretched out, but all the rest is sung very quickly, which also makes it hard to make out any other lyrics.
    Basically, the structure of the chorus is:

    A sentence that ends in a word that rhymes with roll
    Let the good times roll. let the good times roll
    bit of flute in between
    & then repeat the above

    at the end of the song they go on with: "Good times roll on" repeated

    It is kind of a funky song, there is a flute solo somewhere in it too.

    Another distinguishing factor is that the song starts with an instrumental bit that sounds very much like "Won't you take me to" (Funky Town), and this melodic theme can be heard pretty much throughout the song.

    Of course when I google "let the good times roll" it comes up with all kinds of classics, but nothing that looks like the song I'm searching for, so I'm hoping someone here knows it, or knows how to find it.

    Thanks a bunch!

    I immediately thought of "Good Times Roll" by The Cars but that has male lead vocals and I'm not aware of any covers by a female artist. Not a recent recording but did you try "C'mon Baby Let The Good Times Roll" by Janis Joplin?
    Them that can, do; them that can't... memorize Artist and Title

    Also try "Dive In" by Christy Carlson Romano

    Thanks for trying, but it's neither of those.
