Honky Tonk World - Engelbert Humperdinck

There used to be a time when candlelight and wine

Was all that a woman would need

Man, you’ll be a winner if you took her out to dinner

Or a movie that she wanted to see

Now the world has turned and it’s time you learned

The old ain’t working no more

The rules have changed and it’s a brand new game

Buddy, if you wanna score

Get off the couch and get out of the house

Long about a Friday night

Shine up your boots, polish up your moves

If you wanna keep her satisfied

You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time

If you want to keep your little girl

Well, you don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

You’re living in a honky tonk world

Sooner or later, all you couch potatoes

You’re gonna be the lonely ones

If you want good lovin' then you gotta keep up

You better know your Brook’s from your Dunn’s

And don’t even think that your Englebert Humperdinck’s

Record’s gonna turn her on

Mister, you can bet if you don’t know the steps

You’re gonna get left at home

Get off the couch, get out of the house

Long about a Friday night

Shine up your boots, polish up your moves

If you wanna keep her satisfied

You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time

If you want to keep your little girl

Well, you don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

'Cause you’re living in a honky tonk world

You were cro-magnon, you’d be draggin' your women

By a hair to your cave

You’d be down on one knee reciting them soliloquies

Back in Romeo’s day

You’d be kind of nifty if you were in the Fifties

And you had a cool car to drive

But now you past the Nineties so you better shake your hiney

Or you’re gonna get left behind

Get off the couch and get out of the house

Long about a Friday night

Shine up your boots, polish up your moves

If you wanna keep her satisfied

You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time

If you want to keep your little girl

Well, you don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

You’re living in a honky tonk world

You don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

'Cause we’re living in a honky tonk world

Get off the couch and get out of the house

Long about a Friday night

Shine up your boots, polish up your moves

If you wanna keep her satisfied

You know, a little bump and grind would do it every time

If you want to keep your little girl

Well, you don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

You’re living in a honky tonk world

You don’t stand a chance 'less you take her out to dance

'Cause you’re living in a honky tonk world
