(Okay now everyone, this ain't just my new song, it's also a dance number, so get your partner and enjoy a great dance tonight! (official dance choreography coming soon, LOL!) ![]() Honky-Tonk 101 By: Noah Eaton 10/31/03 I could tell she was lookin’ for a lil’ fun tonight So I said, “Hey baby, want me to take you for a spin?” Cuz I know a great place where the neon rainbow buzzes, and feels more festive than Austin City Limits. So pull on them cowboy boots and Levis 501 jeans, and hop right into this old Dodge truck and hustle cuz I’m gonna show you how to swing Let me play your favorite songs on the jukebox, drop them slick nickels into the slot Put your arms around me, let’s go taggin’ along I’ll show you the secrets of rompin’ stompin’ around the clock And you’ll be getting’ down like crazy, before this honky-tonkin’ night is done. That’s the course objective of Honky Tonk 101 Watchin’ her hop right on the barstools, I could tell she was a natural She’s got Jimmie Rodgers in her heart, and Hank Thompson in her soul She made all the crowds’ heads turn, hotfoot shufflin’ like a loose cannon She’s got electricity runnin’ through her heels, a Texas twister looker getting’ everyone movin’ Let me play your favorite songs on the jukebox, drop them slick nickels into the slot Put your arms around me, let’s go taggin’ along I’ll show you the secrets of rompin’ stompin’ around the clock And you’ll be getting’ down like crazy, before this honky-tonkin’ night is done. That’s 100% guaranteed in Honky Tonk 101 She set their hearts hangin’ from the chandeliers, the way she moves turns me on With just a jack rabbit jump she came swingin’ to me, shoutin’ “Take it away, Leon!” I said, “You’re just like a second fiddle, to that steel guitar!” Congratulations, you’ve just aced this class, you’re gonna be a shinin’ star! Let me play your favorite songs on the jukebox, drop them slick nickels into the slot Put your arms around me, let’s go taggin’ along, I’ll show you the secrets of rompin’ stompin’ around the clock And you’ll be getting’ down like crazy, before this honky-tonkin’ night is done. That’s the promise of Honky Tonk 101 If you want to be getting’ down like crazy Livin’ that honky-tonk dream you love, Just come on down to Honky-Tonk 101 I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth I can see the sun set and I perceive ***Live*** [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (11-01-2003 04:19 PM).] |

Well if this isn't a hoot-enanny and a half! So that's where you hang out when you are not with us! Oh, well, that Honky-Tonk sounds like a real fun place to hang out! ![]() Noah, this was a delightful read and would be a delight to listen and dance to! My toe is still tapping to the beat! Have a great day, my dear angel friend! Linda |
