Hillbilly Hellcats Better Be Some Drinkin'


It was a Friday night at a honky-tonk outside of town
They had a four band bill with the cats really laying
it down
Yeah the dance floor was packed with the boppers really
gettin down
When up comes the owner a cussin' and a wearin' a frown
He said "I hope you're havin' fun, I hope that's what
you came here for
You been gettin' five bucks from everone who walks in
the door
But the bartender's lonesome, he hasn't had a drink to
pour
And the waitress just quit, she said we don't need her
no more

Chorus:
This ain't no coffeehouse, ain't got dime lemonade
And I couldn't give a damn about whatever was the music
you played
And I really don't care about whatever was the deal we
made
There better be some drinkin' if you're thinkin' that
you're gonna get paid

Well just about then there was a grandma playin' the
slots
And the bell started ringin' when grandma hit the
jukebox
Grandma screamed and said "my, I'm as lucky as can be"
So leave the band alone and buy everyone a drink on me"

Chorus.

So if you came here tonight and all you're gonna do is
dance
The waitress and the owners are sure to be losin' their
pants
And I was just thinkin' that there really oughta be a
law
If you ain't gonna drink you gotta bring your grandma

Chorus.
