(verse)
I'd been sweatin' all day out in the hot summer sun,
The weatherman said it bout a hundred and one.
I thought five o'clock was never gonna come,
It's Friday night and I just got paid, I'm ready for some fun.
(chorus)
Down at the watering hole,
Yeah. The watering hole.
The girls are nice and pretty and the beer's ice cold,
Let's go down to the watering hole.
(verse)
Got a pocket full of money, got on my dancing' boots,
I'm lookin' for some honey, working on my good time groove.
There's a little latin beauty that I'd like to get to know,
She's a hot swingin', beer slingin' jalepeno.
(chorus)
(bridge)
Pool balls clickin' and the juke box a jumpin',
And velvet Elvis on the wall,
Sometimes the twins drink too many jaeger bombs,
And start taking everything off...
(verse)
Got a dart league in the corner puttin' holes in walls and doors,
There's big screens for the big games and everybody scores.
It gets a little noisy when the trio starts to jam,
It's a peanut butter sandwich world and I'm the jelly, man,
(chorus )
(2nd chorus)
Down at the watering hole,
Yeah. The watering hole.
The girls are all so pretty and it never gets old,
Let's go down to the watering hole.
Let's go down to the watering hole.
Let's go down to the watering hole.

Yes I want to dance........

Exceptionally well done cross between Chicago and Memphis style blues, nothing to criticize, great tune very well played.
