You've got to get off the couch get out of the house
'Less you take her out and dance
If you want to keep your little girl
Now if you were cro-magnon you'd be draggin'
You'd be down on your knees citing them soliloquies
'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world
'Less you take her out and dance
That the old ain't working no more
'Cause Mister you can bet if you don't know the steps
Shine up your boots polish up your moves
Yeah you'd be kind of nifty if we were in the Fifties
'Less you take her out and dance
And you had a cool car to drive
'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world
Them woman by the hair to your cave
If you want to keep your little girl
Don't even think that your Engelbert Humperdink
Man you were a winner if you took her out to dinner
But the world has turned and it's time you learned
Record's gonna turn her on
If you want to keep her satisfied
Then you're gonna get left at home
And buddy if you want to score
'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world
You've got to get off the couch get out of the house
Shine up your boots polish up your moves
Oh a little bump and grind will do it every time
And you better know your Brook's from your Dunn's
Long about Friday night
Yeah the rules have changed it's brand new game
If you want to keep her satisfied
Well sooner or later all you couch potatoes
You know a little bump and grind will do it every time
'Cause we're living in a honky tonk world
Long about Friday night
'Less you take her out and dance
But you don't stand a chance
Shine up your boots polish up your moves
If you want to keep her satisfied
And if you want good lovin' then you gotta keep up
Or you're gonna get left behind
But we're living in the Nineties so you better shake your hiney
Long about Friday night
Back in Romeo's day
But you don't stand a chance
But you don't stand a chance
You know a little bump and grind will do it every time
You've got to get off the couch get out of the house
Where you're gonna be the lonely one
If you want to keep your little girl
No you don't stand a chance
Or a movie she wanted to see
