Country Boy Beat

(Verse 1)
Dust off the leather, kick the mud off the tread
The sun’s sinking low and the sky’s turning red
Farmer’s got the tractor parked deep in the shed
Now it’s time to wake the ghosts and raise up the dead
I’m talking ‘bout a rhythm that’s built in the bone
From the hills of Kentucky to the Texas plains stone
Don’t need no DJ, don’t need no light show
Just a floorboard to beat and a whistle to blow.
(Chorus)
It’s the Country Boy Beat, let your heels hit the clay
Shake off the weight of a twelve-hour day
Left foot heavy, right foot fast
Built like a fever that’s made to last
From the barn to the blacktop, let it rattle your teeth
The thunder above and the fire underneath
Yeah, we’re keeping it steady, we’re keeping it clean
Gettin down with that Country Boy Beat.
(Verse 2)
See the girls in the denim spinning round in a blur
Every snap of the fingers is a promise to her
The fiddle’s got a temper and the banjo’s a flirt
While we’re digging out a rhythm in the gravel and dirt
It ain’t about the polish, it ain’t about the shine
It’s about the heart beating in a straight line
So grab you a partner or stand on your own
This here’s the anthem of the Friday night zone.

(Chorus)
It’s the Country Boy Beat, let your heels hit the clay
Shake off the weight of a twelve-hour day
Left foot heavy, right foot fast
Built like a fever that’s made to last
From the barn to the blacktop, let it rattle your teeth
The thunder above and the fire underneath
Yeah, we’re keeping it steady, we’re keeping it clean
Gettin down with that Country Boy Beat.

(Bridge)
(Spoken over a heavy kick drum)
Now, kill the lights.
Give me that low-end rumble.
I want to hear the floorboards groan.
One for the money, two for the sweat.
The loudest night you ain't seen yet.
Pick 'em up!

(Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break with heavy boot-stomping percussion)

(Outro)
Keep it stomping (Yeah, just like that)
Keep it sliding (Don’t you look back)
The moon’s going down but we’re just getting warm
The eye of the needle, the heart of the storm
It’s the beat...
The Country Boy beat.
(Fade out with the sound of a final, heavy boot thud

Two-step, alternative country, male, fun, flirty
