Smooth talker
He thinks he'll be the one to walk her to his room
But for all of his schemin', he's only dreamin'
He might as well be gone
Because she's got her eyes on the dance floor
She's made up her mind
& the lady takes the cowboy every time

CHORUS:
'Cause she's just dyin' to do the Texas 2-step
& she just can't wait to strut her stuff
Dancin' to the Cotton Eyed Joe
So she'll come dancin' till the band stops playin'
At 2 in the mornin'
& still have time for one before she goes
Off with her 2-steppin' cowboy
She'll have time for one beer before they go

Tall & handsome
He thinks he'll prob'ly land somewhere in her arms tonight
Well he thinks he's cool, but she thinks he's a fool
He might as well turn & go
Because she's got her eyes on the dance floor
She's made up her mind
& the lady takes the cowboy every time

(chorus)
