                    There's a light in the kitchen 
                    As I cross the valley and head her on into the
                    yard 
                    My wife is watching from that light in the
                    kitchen 
                    As I cross that old cattle guard 
                    I unload my horses -- Two Bits and Roanie 
                    And throw them a few Fakes of hay 
                    My wife comes to meet me with that
                    determined look 
                    The first thing that I heard her say 

                    Chorus: 
                    Darlin' we haven't gone dancing 
                    For such a long time now 
                    It's been so long since we twirled around the
                    dance floor 
                    I've almost forgotten how 
                    So gas up the pick-up 
                    I'll bring the babies 
                    They'll stay with the neighbors tonight 
                    If the band at the bar 
                    Can play waltzes and shuffles 
                    I'm gonna dance with my own heart's delight

                    So I drank a cold one 
                    I sang in the shower 
                    I pondered upon marriage and such 
                    They say this country was hell on horses and
                    women 
                    I guess it ain't changed all that much
                    We make a good team my lady and I 
                    I couldn't ask for anything more 
                    If you don't believe me 
                    Just catch us tonight
                    We'll be the best dancers out on that floor

                    Repeat Chorus
