Face in the mirror she's gettin' ready to go Fussin' with her hair, singin' to the radio The phone ring, ring, rings as she's slippin' on her jeans Tighter than the law allows Pedal to the floor she races downtown For a big night out Headin' to the honky-tonk hopin' for a dance Right across the street there's a smokin' blues band Down on the corner Milly's grill's cookin' all night long Take a girl with a curl and a rhythm in her walk A boy in the corner gettin' courage up to talk Ooh, ooh, ooh ain't that what it's all about That's the makin's of a big night out On the other side of town there's a boy gettin' ready to go TV dinner with one eye on the fishin' show He's a hard workin' guy with a party on his mind And this is just another night on the town Little does he know the stars are in line For a big night out Headin' to the honky-tonk hopin' for a dance Right across the street there's a smokin' blues band Down on the corner Milly's grill's cookin' all night long Take a girl with a curl and a rhythm in her walk A boy in the corner gettin' courage up to talk Ooh, ooh, ooh ain't that what it's all about That's the makin's of a big night out His heart's beatin' fast when he says hello Somethin' in the airs sayin' take it slow Old time, storybook love of their lives Just might get started tonight Headin' to the honky-tonk hopin' for a dance Right across the street there's a smokin' blues band Down on the corner Milly's grill's cookin' all night long Take a girl with a curl and a rhythm in her walk A boy in the corner gettin' courage up to talk Ooh, ooh, ooh ain't that what it's all about That's the makin's of a big night out The makin's of a big night out
