Paul Nelson - Honky Tonk World lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, there used to be a time when candlelight and wine was all that a woman would need Man, you'd be a winner if you took her out to dinner or a movie she'd been wantin' to see But the world has turned and it's time you learned that the old ain't working no more Yeah, the rules have changed an' it's brand new game and buddy, if you want to score [Chorus] You got to get off the couch get out of the house long 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 don't stand a chance 'less you take her out and dance 'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world [Verse 2] Well, sooner or later all you couch potaters are gonna be the lonely ones If you want good lovin' then you gotta keep up And you better know your Brook's from your Dunn's Don't even think that your Engelbert Humperdink record's gonna turn her on 'Cause, Mister, you can bet if you don't know the steps Then you're gonna get left at home [Chorus] You got to get off the couch get out of the house long 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 don't stand a chance 'less you take her out and dance 'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world [Verse 3] Now if you were Cro-Magnon you'd be draggin' them woman by the hair to your cave You'd be down on your knees citing them soliloquies back in Romeo's day Yeah, an' you'd be kind of nifty if we were in the Fifties and you had a cool car to drive But we're living in the Nineties so you better shake your hiney Or you're gonna get left behind [Chorus] You got to get off the couch get out of the house long 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 don't stand a chance 'less you take her out and dance 'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world [Outro] No, you don't stand a chance 'less you take her out and dance 'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world
