We Got Tonight
Friday night beneath the blue neon lights
A honkytonk bar near surrounding heights
Full of cigarette smoke and loud music,
Boilermakers of whiskey and beer... winning trick.
The jukebox playing, "We Got Tonight." Young and able
He glances my way as he stands by the pool table.
Taking my breath away as he turns my way and say.
Do you want to dance? He holds my hand and away.
The minute that he touched my neck small bumps
Appear, the hair stood straight causing a lump
In my throat. I let him be my master.
Emotions of excitement arouse, my heart beats faster.
Bathing in warm and chills head-to-toe goosebumps
Off balance singing along to the song in my new pumps.
