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
E B

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
E B
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
E A E A
Yeah heal to toe docey doe com'mon baby lets go boot scootin, Cadilac
E B

(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...
