Paroles de la chanson
This ain't Texas (Woo), ain't no hold 'em (Hey)
So lay your cards down, down, down, down
So park your Lexus (Woo) and throw your keys up (Hey)
Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round (Stick around)
And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you
Come pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo, ha, woo)
There's a tornado (There's a tornado) in my city (In my city)
In the basement (In the basement), that shit ain't pretty (Shit ain't pretty)
Rugged whiskey (Rugged whiskey) 'cause we survivin' ('Cause we survivin')
Off red cup kisses, sweet redemption, passin' time, yeah
Ooh, one step to the right
We headin' to the dive bar we always thought was nice
Ooh, run me to the left
Then spin me in the middle, boy, I can't read your mind
This ain't Texas (Woo), ain't no hold 'em (Hey)
So lay your cards down, down, down, down
So park your Lexus (Woo) and throw your keys up (Hey)
Stick around, 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round (Stick around)
And I'll be damned if I can't slow dance with you
Come and pour some sugar on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo)
And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you
Come and pour some liquor on me, honey too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo)
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
Woo-hoo
There's a heatwave (There's a heatwave) coming at us (Coming at us)
Too hot to think straight (Too hot to think straight), too cold to panic (Too cold to panic)
All of the problems just feel dramatic (Just feel dramatic)
And now we're runnin' to the first spot that we find, yeah
Ooh, one step to the right
We headin' to the dive bar we always thought was nice
Ooh, you run to the left
Just with me in the middle boy, I can't read your mind
This ain't Texas (Woo), ain't no hold 'em (Hey)
So lay your cards down, down, down, down (Oh)
So park your Lexus (Hey) and throw your keys up (Hey)
Stick around,' round, 'round, 'round, 'round (Stick around)
And I'll be damned if I cannot slow dance with you
Come pour some sugar on me, honey, too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a bitch, come take it to the floor now (Woo)
And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you
Come pour some liquor on me honey, too
It's a real life boogie and a real life hoedown
Don't be a—, come take it to the floor now, ooh
Take it to the floor now, ooh
Hoops, spurs, boots
To the floor now, ooh
Tuck, back, oops (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Shoot
Come take it to the floor now, ooh
And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you
Baby, pour that sugar and liquor on me too
Furs, spurs, boots
Solargenic, photogenic, shoot
