"Honky Tonk Attitude" lyrics - JOE DIFFIE

Well the beer's on the bar and the smoke fills the air
There's a fool in every corner man I just don't care
Tight pants, line dance, Stetson hats and cowboy boots
They got a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude

Well the waitress never leaves you with a half-empty glass
And every girl's on the dance floor shaking her, well
It's a two-step, three-step, outta step country mood
They got a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude

[Chorus:]
Well now everybody knows that's where everybody goes
Just to dance away their blues
So leave your cares behind, it's just a state of mind
What have you got to lose

Hey bartender, pour us another round
We're just getting started don't shut us down
We need a slow dance, romanced, last chance rendezvous
We need a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude

[Chorus:]
Well now everybody knows that's where everybody goes
Just to dance away their blues
So leave your cares behind, it's just a state of mind
What have you got to lose
What have you got to lose

[Instrumental Break - shake it - Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4, repeat of verse 3]
Hey bartender, pour us another round
We're just getting started don't shut us down
We need a slow dance, romanced, last chance rendezvous
We need a Friday night, get right, honky tonk attitude

[Chorus:]
Well now everybody knows that's where everybody goes
Just to dance away their blues
So leave your cares behind, it's just a state of mind
What have you got to lose

[Tag:]
If you've got a Friday night, get right honky tonk attitude
Yeah you need a Friday night, get right honky tonk attitude
