Going down to downtown full of sounds
This languid town's blinding with its city lights
I'm looking at some lovely passers-by
The summertime anyway makes people nice

Good country songs often talk 'bout a river
My country song's talking about this and that
Good country songs often talk 'bout a mountain
My country song's talking 'bout I don't know what

This song's to have a dance with you
This song is only to have a dance with you

I wonder if it's better to burn from a kindled kiss
Than in a simulated bliss

This song will come too soon to its end
It always will be remembered as empty
I should earn money from the time that I spend
Instead of writing down this inanity

This song's to have a dance with you
This song is only to have a dance with you
