I got outta work and I felt like shootin’ pool
Or maybe do a little drinkin’ if I could find an empty stool
I’ve gotta find a pay to pass some of this extra time
Since my house is dark and empty and that girl of mine
Left me high and lonesome she played me for a fool
Down at the Buckhorn bar they had a good house band
I’d had about all the solitude this old boy could stand
I pulled my truck up underneath the flashin’ neon lights
Saw a pretty little woman as I walked inside
She musta seen that hurtin’ in my eyes cause she took my hand
All she said was
Two steps forward and one stеp back
We was moving to the rhythm in the honky-tonk shack
My troublеs and my worries they all seemed to slip away
I know it’s late and I should prob’ly go home
But I can’t leave you dancin’ out here all alone
I got nobody waiting up for me so I think I’ll stay
I felt my heart start beatin’ as I pulled her body close to mine
She had those red lips, swingin’ hips she knew how to have a good time
She was a true heartbreaker it was plain to see
So I asked her if she wanted to come home with me
She said you couldn’t make me leave this hardwood floor if you tried
All we did was
Two steps forward and one step back
We was moving to the rhythm in the honky-tonk shack
My troubles and my worries they all seemed to slip away
I know it’s late and I should prob’ly go home
But I can’t leave you dancin’ out here all alone
I got nobody waiting up for me so I think I’ll stay
I got nobody waiting up for me so I think I’ll stay
