SONG LYRICS: “DANCIN IN THE DIRT”

by Houston Bernard and Britton Cameron

Been a long week thank god its friday.

There’s a secret little road right off the highway

Through the woods we go and cross a couple a creeks to Old man johnson farm

What could go wrong just me and my buddies

Some gasoline and some pyro putty

A case of Natty light, and some Oklahoma green, a Pint of Old Crow to keep us warm

So if you wanna come along

Gonna be some loving, Gonna be some mudding, We racing to get there first,

Gonna be some Drinkin, gonna be some fighting, somebody gonna get hurt

Oooh Hoo when we light that fire – lines are gonna get blurred/Burned

And we’ll be dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing in the dirt

A truck full of girls, then it’s a party

If I learn not to slur I might get lucky

I gotta on a new flannel shirt and a Splash of old spice to wash away the smoke

So, Jump on in if you wanna go

Gonna be some loving, Gonna be some mudding, We racing to get there first,

Gonna be some Drinkin, gonna be some fighting, somebody gonna get hurt

Oooh Hoo when we light that fire – lines are gonna get blurred/Burned

And we’ll be dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing in the dirt

Round and Round and around we go, Grab your partner and Dosey Doe

Nothing makes me come alive like a pretty girl in a Dip and Dive

Roll one up, pour a drink and a long line of gasoline

Strike that match cuz here we go, we’re gonna light it up and Watch it blow

Gonna be some loving, Gonna be some mudding, We racing to get there first,

Gonna be some Drinkin, gonna be some fighting, somebody gonna get hurt

Oooh Hoo when we light that fire – lines are gonna get blurred/Burned

And we’ll be dancing, dancing, dancing, dancing in the dirt
