Out in the country past the city limit 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 scoot boogie.
I got a good job, I work hard for my money.
When it's quittin' time, I hit the door running.
I fire up my pick-up truck, and let the horses run.
I go flyin' down that highway to that hideaway,
stuck out in the woods to do the boot scoot boogie.
(Chorus)
Heel-toe, do-si-do, come on baby, let's go boot scoot.
Cadillac, black jack, baby meet em out back we're gonna boogie.
Get down, turn around, go to town, boot scoot boogie.
Bartender asks me, "Say son, what'll it be?"
"I want a shot o' that redhead yonder looking at me."
The dance floor's hoppin, and it's hotter than the fourth of July.
I see outlaws, inlaws, crooks and straights, all out makin' it shake
doin' the boot scootin' boogie.
