FRIDAY NIGHT IN DIXIE
There was a cloud of dust down Lonesome Road
One full moon Friday night
The county sheriff and old man Jones
Had a feelin' that it wasn't right
So they followed a beer can trail
And it took 'em to the riverbank
There was girls and guys and 4 wheel drives
And 500 watts of Hank
Well that sheriff was packin' a 44
And he shot it up in the air
He said you're on private property people
Better move it on outta here
Then a blue eyed cutie with a wiggly walk
Came slidin' up next to him
Said there ain't no way you're gettin' us out
So you might as well come on in
She said
CHORUS:
It's Friday night in Dixie
It's time to have some fun
Anything goes 'til the rooster crows
And we see that southern sun
We're gonna party down to that country sound
You know what I'm talkin' about
It's Friday night in Dixie
Can't hold it in let it all hang out
The sheriff searched all the pick-up trucks
To see what he could find
Some shotgun shells, an old buck knife and a mason jar of shine
Then Billy jumped up in the back of his truck
And said sheriff I do confess
I stole that bottle from old man Jones
'Cause I heard that he made the bet
The sheriff put down his pistol
Looked over at ol' man Jones
Said it's up to you what you wanna do
Lock 'em up or leave 'em alone
Well that ol' man said I sure have done
My share of raisin' hell
And I ain't to old to raise it with y'all
Then he let out a rebel yell
He said
CHORUS:
