AWhen you're ready for steady to go dancin', romancin'
Grab your sweetheart and jump in your cEar
Drive right on down to the bright side of town
You'll be glad you don't have to drive Afar
You'll be Ehappy you don't have to go fAar
Park your Dpickups and Cadilacs, Fords and Renaults
A E A *
And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz
AGrandmammy, grandpappy if you plan to stay happy
You better lace up your best dancin Eshoes
Come see us, don't write us, you can stop your arthritis
Just by dancin' away your Ablues
Just by Edancin' away your bluAes
DSo bind up your bunions with band-aids and gauze
A E A *
Come dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz
AI met a fine banker and I'd sure like to thank him
For the credit he gave me made me sEhout
He changed my whole attitude and to show him ny gratitude
I decided I'd just ask him Aout.
Yes I Ethought I just might ask her Aout
I said Dclose up your windows, honey, lock up your vaults
A E A *
And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz
AWe spent the next to the last dollar in the old ice cream parlor
On a milkshake and a malt and a Epop
Then we heard us some sounds, there was a honky tonk lounge
Right Next to the ice cream Ashop
Next dEoor to the ice cream Ashop
Now only Dtwo things are better than milkshakes and malts
A E A *
And one is dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz
AAnd the other is somethin', but really it's nothin'
To speak of it's somethin' to Edo
If you've done it before, you'll be doin' it some more
Just as soon as the dancin' is Athrough
ERight after the dancin' is Athrough
DAnd if anybody asks you why, just tell it's because
You been Adancin' like the dickens Eto the West Texas AWaltz.
