Friday Night Girl

Lock up the front door
meet you at the back door
close down the shop
and shut down the store
there’s a new bar in town
and the word’s gettin’ round
they’re playin’ old honkytonk
with a little bit of rock
gonna give ‘em a shock
give ‘em reason to talk yeah

Slavin’ every workday
savin’ for a week’s pay
gonna blow it all
on a friday holiday
there’s a new joint in town
gonna burn it to the ground
they’re playin’ old honkytonk
with a little bit of rock
gonna give ‘em a shock
give ‘em reason to talk yeah

Boy you better slow your rig
there’s trouble ahead
nothing but a night of dangerous curves
from this friday night girl

Keep your glitter and your neon
so much better bein’
blue jean hot and
smokin’ like a six gun
buy me a round
we’re gonna shake up this town
they’re playin’ old honkytonk
and they ain’t never gonna stop
gonna give ‘em a shock
give ‘em reason to talk yeah

Boy you better slow your rig
there’s trouble ahead
nothing but a night of dangerous curves
from this friday night girl

(BRIDGE- missing in this demo!!)
Unless you want a war
better keep the dance floor
hot ‘til morning
And just when you think you’ve missed
you might get a slow kiss
without warning

Red lace and denim
party to the a.m.
next friday night
gonna do it all again
don’t ya hear that sound?
gettin’ rowdy all around
playin’ old honkytonk
no one’s lookin’ at the clock
gonna give ‘em a shock
jaws are gonna drop yeah

Boy you better slow your rig
got yourself in a hairpin turn
but it’ll be alright if you got the nerve
for this friday night girl
yeah this friday night girl
friday night girl
