[Verse 1: Drake Milligan]
Downtown's got a bunch of bands with rock 'n' roll six-stringin'
But if I go down, I'm goin' down swingin' (Aw, yeah)
Do some one-two-steppin' to some old Bob Wells' singin'
If I go down, I'm goin' down swingin' (Hang on)
Dallas down to San Anton', rollin' like a rollin' stone
I'll stop for every flash of neon light
Drivin' down them FM roads with AM on my radio
Ace in the hole, band, play me home tonight
Hammer down on the beat, that po-po said I was speedin'
He can lock me up, but I'm goin' down swingin' (Aw, yeah)

[Interlude]
(Ah)
Tell 'em, young man

[Verse 2: Vince Gill]
You're a little country for today, but what the hell, so be it
If you're goin' down, go on down swingin' (Yes, you are)
You know you're way be behind the times with this twang thing you're bringin'
If you go down, go on down swingin'
I am what I say I am, you don't like me, I don't give a damn
No one can please 'em all and that's alright (That's right)
You know I ain't no scaredy-crow, I'll put 'em up there toe-to-toe
Ain't gonna ring no bell without a fight (That's right)
If they think they can knock me out, boy, they'd better bring it
If I go down, I'm goin' down swingin'
[Interlude]
(Bring it on, Gordon, bring it on)
(What the world needs now)
(Oh, yeah)
(Yes, sir)

[Verse 3: Drake Milligan]
Dallas down to San Anton', rollin' like a rollin' stone
I'll stop for every flash of neon light
Drivin' down them FM roads with AM on my radio
Ace in the hole, band, play me home tonight
Gonna go see my little gal later on this evenin'
She's got some sun-brewed, sweet-tea kisses that need stealin'
Gonna hold her tight, hangin' from that back porch ceilin'
Watch that hot Texas sun
Goin' down swingin' (One, two, three)

[Outro]
(Take it on home, fellas, take it on home)
