All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight Lyrics
I got ketchup on my blue jeans, I just burnt my hand
Lord, it’s hard to be a bachelor man
I got girls that can cook, I got girls that can clean
I got girls that can do anything in between
I got to get ready, make everything right
‘Cause all my rowdy friends are comin’ over tonight
Do you wanna drink, hey do you wanna party?
Hey honey, this is old Hank, ready to get the thing started
We cooked the pig in the ground, got some beer on ice
And all my rowdy friends are comin’ over tonight
Now my party pad is out in the woods
It’s a long, long way from here to Hollywood
But I got some natural queens out on the floor
And old Miss Mississippi just walked through the door
Got a little wirlpool just made for ten
And you can jump out and you can jump in
You can do anything that you want to do
But uh-uh, don’t you step on my cowboy boots
Do you wanna drink, hey do you wanna party?
Hey, this is old Hank, ready to get your summer started
I cooked a pig in the ground, we got some beer on ice
And all my rowdy friends are coming over tonight
Do you wanna drink, hey do you wanna party?
Hey, hey this is rock and Randall Hank, ready to get the summertime started
We cooked the pig in the ground, we got some beer on ice
All my rowdy friends are comin’ over tonight
That’s right, come on in
Remember to “share” the All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight music video with other Country Music fans.
