been sweatin’ in the haze all day
and somethin’s gotta take this edge away
the sun’s goin down and everyone around
is headed for the flo hoedown

freshened up and headed to the scene
rowdiest shindig i ever seen
a gathering of clowns from all the nearby towns
livin’ up the flo hoedown

got myself a drink and hit the floor
before too long came a knockin’ at the door
the law of the town, sheriff john brown
coming to bust the flo hoedown

all the faces turned to the man
waiting for erroneous demand
glass of jack, surprise attack,
one more clown brown’s boogie bound
and there ain’t one frown at the flo hoedown
no there ain’t one frown at the flo hoedown
