Lyrics
“Red Neckin’ Love Makin’ Night”
Hey!
Hello baby, Conway here
Let me lay this in your ear
Get ready to go
We gonna roll about sundownI got some boogie woogie music
On the old 8-track
Yeah, I got the top laid back
We’ll go cruisin’
We’ll go foolin’ aroundWell here I am baby, ready to play
Slide it on in, we’ll slip away
We gotta get it, we ain’t got a minute to wasteI got a 6-pack of longnecks
In the trunk on ice
Oohh – but, you sure look nice
Makes me want to hug you
And kiss you all over your faceIt’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
You ain’t had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ nightStars in your eyes, wind in your hair
Oh, what a down home love affair
When we go out walkin’
We know what we’re talkin’ aboutListen to the wipperwills
How they sing
Just like us, they doin’ their thin’
We know what we got
When the night gets hot down southIt’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
You ain’t had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ nightIt’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
You ain’t had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ night
It’s a red-neckin’, love-makin’ nightlaugh… HEY!
