[Verse1]
We need more honky-tonks
Playing country songs
We need more making love
And leaving no regrets
I need more lying down with you
With your head upon my chest
We need less time alone
And more duets

[Verse 2]
We need more honky-tonks
Playing country songs
We need more leaning in
And practicing our steps
We need more dancing slow
Till our boots just plead to rest
We need more give and take
Like great duets

[Verse 3]
We need more steel guitars
And great old country bars
We need to double-down on love
The tougher that it gets
'Cause life is trying hard
To move us off our bets
We need less going it alone
And more duets

[Verse 4]
We need more honky-tonks
Playing country songs
More gently saying words
That must be said
Oh, we need more time to learn
The lines we each sing best
You gotta hear each other's voice (oh)
To sing duets

[Refrain]
We need more honky-tonks
Playing country songs
More giving all we got
And not what's left
Hit the notes that matter most
and leave out all the rest
We need to spend more time at home
We need far less time alone and more duets
We need less solo lines
And more duets
