Out in the country past the city limit sign well there's a honkey tonk
A
near the county line, The joint starts jumpin every night when the sun goes
EB
down, They got whiskey women music and smoke it's where all the cowboys all
E
go to boot scoot boogie, I gotta good job I work hard for my money when its
A
quittin time I hit the door runnin, I fire up my pickup truck and let the
EB
horses run, I go flyin down that highway to that hide-away stuck out in the
E
woods to do the boot scoot boogie
CHORUS
EAEA
Yeah heal to toe docey doe com'mon baby lets go boot scootin, Cadilac
EB
black jack baby meet me out back were gon'na boogie, Get down turn around
E
go to town boot scoot boogie
(piano interlude)
Bartender asks me says son what'll be I want a shot of that red-head yonder
lookin at me, The dance floors hopin and its hotter than the fourth of july, I see
inlaws crooks and straights all makin it shake doin the boot scoot boogie
CHORUS...
(Hope this has been helpfull.)
