Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Friday rolls in wearing red on the clock
I kick open the door at the Corner Stop
Got a pocket full of quarters and a grin too wide
You slide me a cold one, I’ll slide to your side
[Pre-Chorus]
When the working week finally lets me go
There’s only one place this good time knows
[Chorus]
Raise it up, let the whole bar ring
Two-step trouble, make the jukebox sing
Boots hit wood and the glasses shine
Everybody’s got a little more time
Raise it up, let the good times roll
Country heart with a dance-floor soul
If you came in dragging, leave that behind
Tonight we’re turning loose on a Saturday night
Tonight we’re turning loose on a Saturday night
[Verse 2]
Old Ray’s at the corner with a lucky red hat
Tells the same fish story, and we love him for that
Maggie’s got a laugh that can rattle the cans
She pulls me close and says, “Show me your plans”
[Pre-Chorus]
The room gets loud when the band kicks in
A little bit of rhythm puts a shine on your grin
[Chorus]
Raise it up, let the whole bar ring
Two-step trouble, make the jukebox sing
Boots hit wood and the glasses shine
Everybody’s got a little more time
Raise it up, let the good times roll
Country heart with a dance-floor soul
If you came in dragging, leave that behind
Tonight we’re turning loose on a Saturday night
[Bridge]
Hold up, bartender, kill the lights down low
Let that bass walk easy while the guitar talks slow
Clap on two, stomp on four, let the sawdust shake
When I holler “one more round,” everybody break
[Breakdown]
Hey now, slide it left
Hey now, shake that floor
Hey now, heel-toe step
Then bring it back for more
[Final Chorus]
Raise it up, let the whole bar ring
Two-step trouble, make the jukebox sing
Boots hit wood and the glasses shine
Everybody’s got a little more time
Raise it up, let the good times roll
Country heart with a dance-floor soul
If you came in dragging, leave that behind
Tonight we’re turning loose on a Saturday night
[Outro]
One more round, one more song
If the sun comes up, we’ll still be going strong
