One for the dance halls, one for all y'all
Down in Texas dancing in circles 'round the floor
And one for the sad eyes, one for the last guy
He sweeps 'em off their feet and out the door

Potholes and pickup trucks
Put aside your busted luck
Well, give the night just one more chance
And you, you grab a stranger and you start to dance

Come and smile, the tempo slows
Look at her eyes, son, don't step on her toes
And pretty soon you'll lock a couple ole pros
And that feeling comes 'round again

One for the dance halls and one for all y'all
Down in Texas dancing in circles 'round the floor
And one for the sad eyes, and one for the white lies
They sweeps 'em off their feet and out the door

Have a smoke in the parking lot
The band stocks up about 9 o'clock
We'll never know 'til a hammer drops
Which way it's all gonna go

Charlie brings the whiskey up
He always asks for faded love
And some guy just threw us twenty bucks
He said, "Thanks", then walked away

And one for the dance halls, one for all y'all
Down in Texas dancing in circles 'round the floor
One for the dance halls so let's all make the last call
And sweeps 'em off their feet and out the door

Sweep 'em off their feet and out the door
