[Verse 1] You said, “Hey boy, where you been?” I said, “Lost my boots and I found that gin” Now the jukebox glow on a Friday night Got my old heart kicking back to life [Pre-Chorus] I been late to the party, I know But I came in ready for the show Your hand in mine, and the floor goes hot Baby, let’s forget what we forgot [Chorus] It’s overdue, overdue I’m two-steppin’ back to you Overdue, overdue Tell the whole room, we’re breaking through (Ooh, ooh) shake that floor (Ooh, ooh) come on more [Verse 2] Your red boots click on the wooden boards Every step says, “Give me more” Bartender grins when we spin around Like a dancin’ storm hit this town [Pre-Chorus] I been late to the party, I know But I came in ready for the show Your hand in mine, and the floor goes hot Baby, let’s forget what we forgot [Chorus] It’s overdue, overdue I’m two-steppin’ back to you Overdue, overdue Tell the whole room, we’re breaking through (Ooh, ooh) shake that floor (Ooh, ooh) come on more [Verse 3] We tore the tab and we laughed all night Salt on the rim and the stars stayed bright Your cheeks gone warm, my boots went loose That old hard luck got a dancehall excuse [Pre-Chorus] I been late to the party, I know But I came in ready for the show Your hand in mine, and the floor goes hot Baby, let’s forget what we forgot [Chorus] It’s overdue, overdue I’m two-steppin’ back to you Overdue, overdue Tell the whole room, we’re breaking through (Ooh, ooh) shake that floor (Ooh, ooh) come on more [Bridge] I don’t need perfect, I need right now I need your laugh and a loud-eyed crowd If love got lost, let it find its way On a bang-up night and a heel-toe sway [Break] [Spoken over stomp] Girl, you still got that fire And I still know how to chase it [Verse 4] The band leans in, and the room gets wild A whole block gone like a midnight child You lift your glass, I lift mine too Saying, “Babe, it’s been overdue” [Pre-Chorus] I been late to the party, I know But I came in ready for the show Your hand in mine, and the floor goes hot Baby, let’s forget what we forgot [Final Chorus] It’s overdue, overdue I’m two-steppin’ back to you Overdue, overdue Tell the whole room, we’re breaking through (Ooh, ooh) shake that floor (Ooh, ooh) come on more Overdue, overdue Ain’t no telling what we’ll do [Outro] Overdue, overdue Hands up high and boots come through Overdue, overdue Baby, I was born for you
