Your rating:
There used to be a time when candlelight and wine Was all that a woman would need Man, you'll be a winner if you took her out to dinner Or a movie that she wanted to see Now the world has turned and it's time you learned The old ain't working no more The rules have changed and it's a brand new game Buddy, if you wanna score Get off the couch and get out of the house Long about a Friday night Shine up your boots, polish up your moves If you wanna keep her satisfied You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time If you want to keep your little girl Well, you don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance You're living in a honky tonk world Sooner or later, all you couch potatoes You're gonna be the lonely ones If you want good lovin' then you gotta keep up You better know your Brook's from your Dunn's And don't even think that your Englebert Humperdinck's Record's gonna turn her on Mister, you can bet if you don't know the steps You're gonna get left at home Get off the couch, get out of the house Long about a Friday night Shine up your boots, polish up your moves If you wanna keep her satisfied You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time If you want to keep your little girl Well, you don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance 'Cause you're living in a honky tonk world You were cro-magnon, you'd be draggin' your women By a hair to your cave You'd be down on one knee reciting them soliloquies Back in Romeo's day You'd be kind of nifty if you were in the Fifties And you had a cool car to drive But now you past the Nineties so you better shake your hiney Or you're gonna get left behind Get off the couch and get out of the house Long about a Friday night Shine up your boots, polish up your moves If you wanna keep her satisfied You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time If you want to keep your little girl Well, you don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance You're living in a honky tonk world You don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance 'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world Get off the couch and get out of the house Long about a Friday night Shine up your boots, polish up your moves If you wanna keep her satisfied You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time If you want to keep your little girl Well, you don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance You're living in a honky tonk world You don't stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance 'Cause you're living in a honky tonk world
