Two-Steppin
we're drinking our first long neck and our feet tap in time
to the steel guitar and this music that is prime
we're gonna dance all night cause tomorrow's a day of rest
even if it wasn't we'd stay 'til the sun crests
when me and you are two-steppin nothing gets in the way
we worked so hard this morning so tonight we can play
hanging with our friends at this country western dive
you paid for the first one but that's the only one you'll buy
this wood or is dusty and some guys are playing pool
a fight will soon break out cause they don't play by the rules
baby, when we're dancing nobody else is in this room
we've just started the evening and it's over much too soon
Buddy buys another round and takes Susie out to dance
he asked for my hand for this one but you told him "not a chance"
with your arm around me we're headin out to the floor
the sun will be high upon us when we leave that's for sure
when me and you are two-steppin nothing gets in the way
we worked so hard this morning so tonight we can play
hanging with our friends at this country western dive
you paid for the first one but that's the only one you'll buy
