Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Well I rolled into town in a beat-up Ford,
Dust on my boots and my paycheck stored.
The jukebox's blarin' that Telecaster twang,
And the dance floor's lit like a fast freight train.
Saw you swingin' by the bar with a wink and a grin,
Tappin' your heel, lettin' trouble begin.
I tipped my hat, you said, "Take a spin,"
Now we're kickin' up sawdust and spinnin' again!

(Chorus)
Buckle up, baby, this ride's gettin' wild,
We're burnin' up the night honky-tonk style.
You and me two-steppin' outta control,
Like a Bakersfield record on a radio roll.
Got a six-pack smile and a neon glow,
Ain't lookin' for slow, just go-go-go!
We're turnin' up the heat and raisin' the stakes,
So buckle up, baby--we ain't touchin' the brakes!

(Verse 2)
That steel guitar's cryin' but I ain't sad,
Got a dance floor queen and a reason to be bad.
You said, "I don't date cowboys"--well, tonight's the exception,
'Cause I'm bringin' my boots and my full-speed affection.
The bartender's laughin', sayin', "Y'all gettin' loud,"
But we just holler back and rile up the crowd.
With a twist and a dip, you stole the show--
Girl, you're hotter than a Bakersfield solo!

(Chorus)
Buckle up, baby, this ride's gettin' wild,
We're burnin' up the night honky-tonk style.
You and me two-steppin' outta control,
Like a Bakersfield record on a radio roll.
Got a six-pack smile and a neon glow,
Ain't lookin' for slow, just go-go-go!
We're turnin' up the heat and raisin' the stakes,
So buckle up, baby--we ain't touchin' the brakes!

(Bridge)
We don't need a plan, we don't need a map,
Just a fiddle in the band and your hands in my lap.
Let's keep this thing rollin' till the sun breaks in,
Then do it all again, where do I begin?

(Final Chorus)
Buckle up, baby, the night's still young,
Let's spin 'til the last guitar string's been strung.
We're a high-octane, boot-scootin' delight,
With a Bakersfield buzz and a Saturday night.
Got that fast-pickin' fever, no slowin' it down--
We're the hottest little flame in this honky-tonk town.
So buckle up, baby, no time for the brakes--
Let's see just how much two hearts can take!
