Intro
Verse1
Well the beer's on the bar and the smoke fills the air
and there's a fool in every corner man I just don't care
tight pants, line dance, stetson hats and cowboy boots
they got a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude
Verse2
Well the waitress never leaves you with a half-empty glass
and every girl's on the dance floor shakin' her... well
it's a two step, three step, outta step, country mood
they got a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude
Bridge
Well now everybody knows that's where everybody goes
just to dance away their blues
so leave your cares behind, it's just a state of mind
what have you got to lose
