[Instrumental Intro] [Fiddle introduces the signature melody. Telecaster answers as piano and the rhythm section establish a warm two-step.] [Verse 1] Her last box went in that hatchback, You said, “Call us when you can.” She said, “Mom, it’s only college,” Then she hugged us both again. You waved till she was out of sight, Then you wiped your teary eyes; I said, “How about a date tonight?” You said, “Pick me up at five.” [Chorus] It’s just us again, Like those nights when love was new; You’ve still got that smile I fell for, And I’ve still got plans for two. There’s a table by the river Where the band plays until ten; Let’s go make another memory— It’s just us again. [Instrumental Turnaround] [Pedal steel echoes the title hook; piano adds a playful answering fill.] [Verse 2] At the table by the river, You reached over for my fries; Said, “We don’t have to hurry,” With that mischief in your eyes. When the band struck up a slow one, You laid your menu down; Said, “Well, are you gonna ask me, Or just sit there smiling now?” [Chorus] It’s just us again, Like those nights when love was new; You’ve still got that smile I fell for, And I’ve still got plans for two. There’s a table by the river Where the band plays until ten; Let’s go make another memory— It’s just us again. [Instrumental Interlude] [Eight-bar exchange between piano and Telecaster. Fiddle and pedal steel add gentle answering phrases.] [Bridge] [Drums soften; acoustic guitar and piano support the vocal.] When she comes home for the holidays, We’ll pull more chairs up close; Till then, I’ve got some catching up With the girl I love the most. [Final Chorus] [Full band returns with warm, close country harmonies.] It’s just us again, Like those nights when love was new; You’ve still got that smile I fell for, And I’ve still got plans for two. There’s a table by the river Where the band plays until ten; Let’s go make another memory— It’s just us again. [Outro] You lay your cheek against my collar, And I feel like I did back then; I’ve still got that first-date feeling— And it’s just us again. [Instrumental Ending] [Fiddle reprises the opening melody. Telecaster and pedal steel answer before a crisp full-band resolution on G.] © 2026 Redneck Muslim. All rights reserved.
