Out in the country
Past the city limits sign
Well there's a honky tonk

Near the county line
The joint starts jumpin' 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 pickup truck

And let the horses run
I go flyin' down the highway
To that hide-a-way

Stuck out in the woods
To do the boot scootin' boogie


Yeah, heel, toe, docie do
Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back

We're gonna boogie
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie


The bartender asks me
Says, "Son what'll it 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 outloaws, inlaws, crooks and straights
All out makin' it shake

Doin' the boot scootin' boogie

Yeah, heel, toe, docie do

Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back
We're gonna boogie

Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie
