Out in the country
Past the city limits sign
Well there's a honky-tonk
Near the county line
The joint starts hoppin every night
When the sun goes down
They got whiskey, women, music, and smoke
It's where all the cowboy folk
Go to boot scootin' boogie
I've got a good job
I work hard for my money
When it's quittin' time
I hit the door runnin'
I fire up my pick-up truck
And let the horses run
I go flyin' down that highway
To that hide-a-way
Stuck out in the woods
To do the boot scootin' boogie

The bartender asks me
Says, "Son what'll be?"
I want a shot at that redhead yonder
Lookin' at me
The dance floor's hoppin'
And it's hotter than the Fourth of July
I see outlaws, inlaws, crooks and straights
All out makin' it shake
Doin' the boot scootin' boogie
