Out in the country
Past the city limits 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 scootin' boogie

I've got a good jo
I work hard for my money
When it's quittin' time
I hit the door runnin'
I fire up my pickup truck
And let the horses run
I go flyin' down the highway
To that hide-a-way
Stuck out in the woods
To do the boot scootin' boogie

Yeah, heel, toe, docie do
Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back
We're gonna boogie
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie

The bartender asks me
Says, "Son what'll it be?"
I want a shot at that redhead yonder
Lookin' at me
The dance floor's hoppin'
And it's hotter than the Fourth of July
I see outloaws, inlaws, crooks and straights
All out makin' it shake
Doin' the boot scootin' boogie

Yeah, heel, toe, docie do
Come on baby, let's go boot scootin'
Oh Cadillac, Blackjack, baby meet me out back
We're gonna boogie
Oh, get down, turn around, go to town
Boot scootin' boogie
