Capo 2nd Fret
1.T[A]here's a light in the kitchen
As I cross the valley and head her on into the [E]yard
My wife is watching from that light in the kitchen
As I cross that old cattle g[A]uard
I u[D]nload my horses -- Two Bits and Roanie
[A]And throw them a few Flakes of [E]hay
My wife comes to meet me with that determined look
The first thing that I heard her s[A]ay
Chorus:
[D]Darlin' we haven't gone dancing
[G]For such a l[A]ong time [D]now
It's been so long since we twirled around the dance floor
[E]I've almost forgotten [A]how
[D]So gas up the pick-up
I'll bring the babies
They'll s[G]tay with the neighbors ton[E]ight
If the b[G]and at the b[A]ar
Can play w[D]altzes and sh[G]uffles
I'm gonna [D]dance with my o[A]wn heart's del[D]ight
2.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
