I pulled in late with the week still goin' on Dust on the floor mat, Thursday nearly gone Tossed my truck keys down beside the bar Figured one cold drink wouldn't last too far Then the kick drum hit like a second heartbeat Steel guitar slid underneath the backbeat She walked past with her boots tapping time Like she'd already heard the song in my mind She caught my eye, then pointed at the floor If you're gonna stand there, don't stand there anymore One little smile, and there went my plan She stepped back twice and reached for my hand Country disco, boots on the floor Four-four kicking through the thumpin' bar room door Slide one step, let your heel come around Turn with the bass when it rolls back down Country disco, neon in the dust Steel strings ringing while the bass line thumps Eight counts rolling, and nobody knows Where the country ends and the disco grows Step, slide, turn Let that wood floor burn Step, slide, turn That's what I finally learned She had turquoise flashing every time she'd turn Silver on her boots catching every beam that burned I missed one step and she laughed in my face Then backed up two counts and gave me the space Said, "Don't chase me, just listen to the beat" So I quit watching her and watched my feet Next thing I knew, my beer was gettin' warm But the band had pulled another song out to perform She caught my eye from the other side Tapped that heel twice and gave me a sign I knew the move, but I missed it on purpose Just to keep her close for another verse Country disco, boots on the floor Four-four kicking through the thumpin' bar room door Slide one step, let your heel come around Turn with the bass when it rolls back down Country disco, neon in the dust Steel strings ringing while the bass line thumps Eight counts rolling, and nobody knows Where the country ends and the disco grows My truck's still sitting underneath that light Keys in my pocket, but I'm not leaving tonight Funny how music can make you take a chance When someone teaches your two left feet to dance Country disco, boots on the floor Four-four kicking through the thumpin' bar room door Slide one step, let your heel come around Turn with the bass when it rolls back down Country disco, don't you kill the light My truck can wait underneath that neon sign One more song, then maybe just one more She pulled me back when I headed for the door Heel, toe, slide Turn it around Boots hit wood Bass comes down Heel, toe, slide Do it once again Heel, toe, slide The songs about to end [8-count instrumental outro]
