They got a vintage victrola 1951 full of my favorite records that i grew up on they got ole hank and lefty and there's b-24 set 'em up joe, and play walkin the floor set 'em up joe, and play walkin the floor
I'm gonna spend the night like every night before
Play an et and i'll play 'em some more
I've gotta have a shot of them old troubadours
Set 'em up joe,
And play walkin' the floor
Set 'em up joe,
And play walkin' the floor
All my neon neighbors they like what i play cause they've heard it every night since you've walked away everyday they replace ol' b-24 cause every night i run a needle through walking the floor every night i run a needle through walking the floor
