Honky-Tonk World (1994)
Well there used to be a time when candlelight and wine was all that a woman would need
And man youd be a winner if you took her out to dinner or a movie shed been wanted to see
But the world has turned and its time you learned that the old aint a-working no more
Yeah the rules have changed and its a brand new game and buddy if you want to score

You gotta get off the couch, get out of the house along about Friday night
Shine up your boots; polish up your moves if you want to keep her satisfied
You know a little bump and grind will do it every time if you want to keep your little girl
But you dont stand a chance unless you take her out and dance
Cause were living in a honky-tonk world

Well sooner or later all you couch potaters well youre gonna be the lonely ones
And if you want good loving then you gotta keep up
And you better know your Brooks from your Dunns
Yeah dont even think that your Engelbert Humperdinck records gonna turn her on
Cause mister you can bet that if you dont know the steps
Well youre gonna get left at home

You gotta get off the couch, get out of the house along about Friday night
Shine up your boots; polish up your moves if you want to keep her satisfied
You know a little bump and grind will do it every time
If you want to keep your little girl
But you dont stand a chance unless you take her out and dance
Cause were living in a honky-tonk world

Now if you were crow-magnon youd be a-bragging that woman by the hair to your cave
Youd be down on your knee reciting those soliloquies back in Romeos days
And it would be nifty in we were in the fifties and you had a cool car to drive
But were living in the nineties so you better shake you hinny or your gonna get left behind

You gotta get off the couch, get out of the house along about Friday night
Shine up your boots; polish up your moves if you want to keep her satisfied
You know a little bump and grind will do it every time if you want to keep your little girl
But you dont stand a chance unless you take her out and dance
Cause were living in a honky-tonk world
No you dont stand a chance unless you take her out and dance
Cause were living in a honky-tonk world
