When I get an inkling in the middle of the evening
I'll meet you by the Old Creek Road
We'll hit the VFW on the Tuskahoma line
When the band lays the first hot note

Hot Licks
Cheap kicks
Pretty women
And it's a real short trip
Rock salt by the door
We're scratchin' circles on the old dance floor

Well we're scratchin' out the beat with the leather on our feet
Drawing circles on the hard concrete
Spinning with a salty rhythm and the moves are gonna get 'em
Just a churning and shaking like the deep blue sea

Hot Licks
Cheap kicks
Pretty women
And it's a real short trip
Rock salt by the door
Scratchin' circles on the old dance floor

Well we're scratchin' out the beat with the leather on our feet
Drawing circles on the hard concrete
Spinning with a salty rhythm and the moves are gonna get 'em
Just a churning and shaking like the deep blue sea
Hot Licks
Cheap kicks
Pretty women
And it's a real short trip
Let's go hit the road
Scratchin' circles on the old dance floor

Well we're rollin' the rock in a salt candy shop
A sweet and savory treat
With a little bit of grip and a one or two nips
I'm gotta jump and a shuffle my feet

Hot Licks
Cheap kicks
Pretty women
And it's a real short trip
Let's go hit the road
Scratchin' circles on the old dance floor

We're scratching circles on the old dance floor
Scratchin' circles on the old dance floor
Scratchin' circles on the old dance floor
We're scratching circles on the old dance floor
