All week long it's a farmin' town They're makin' that money grow Tractors, plows with flashing lights Backin' up a two lane road They take one last lap around That sun up high goes down And then it's on, come on Girl kick it on back Z71 like a Cadillac We go way out where There ain't nobody We turn this cornfield Into a party Pedal to the floorboard Eight up in a four door Burnin' up a back road song Park it and we pile out Baby, watch your step now Better have your boots on Kick the dust up Back it on up Fill your cup up Let's tear it up, up And kick the dust up Bar downtown they got a line Of people way out the door $10 dollar drinks, it's packed inside I don't know what they're waitin' for Got me a jar full of clear And I got that music for your ears And it's like knock, knock, knock goes the diesel If you really wanna see the beautiful people We go way out where There ain't nobody We turn this cornfield Into a party Pedal to the floorboard Eight up in a four door Burnin' up a back road song Park it and we pile out Baby, watch your step now Better have your boots on Kick the dust up Back it on up Fill your cup up Let's tear it up, up And kick the dust up Just follow me down 'neath the 32 bridge Y'all be glad you did We go way out where There ain't nobody We turn this cornfield Into a party Pedal to the floorboard Eight up in a four door Burnin' up a back road song Park it and we pile out Baby watch your step now Better have your boots on Kick the dust up Back it on up Fill your cup up That's what's up, up Let's kick the dust up
