lyrics

Flo

Way down yonder in the backwoods
There lived a young girl named Flo
She acted just like a tomboy
She grew up to be a woman though

I ain't seen her since she was eleven
I come back to buy her daddy's dog
She was standing inside the doorway
I just stood there like a lump on a log

I said lordy my goodness gracious
It's good to see you once again
Well she flashed a big smile and she said to me
 "Don't stand there, won't you come on in.

Then we sat down at the table
And she gave me some water to drink
I couldn't care much less, Flo was in a dress
I was dizzy, I could hardly think.

Chorus
There's somethin' in the water in the country
There's somethin' in the air tonight
We're dancin' to the bow and the fiddle
We're lovin' by the pale moonlight
Come on everybody get movin'
Come on get it on the floor.
Well you can waste your dime
Markin' too much time
We're dancin' right out the door

I said "Flo you're lookin' mighty pretty"
She said "You're lookin' pretty good yourself."
"It's been ten long years grindin' down the gears
I put long haulin' on the shelf.

She said "Billy I been a'thinkin'
I said, "Flo I been thinkin' too.
Well if the truth be said, you can strike me dead.
I believe I got a thing for you."

Chorus
There's somethin' in the water in the country
There's somethin' in the air tonight
We're dancin' to the bow and the fiddle
We're lovin' by the pale moonlight
Come on everybody get movin'
Come on get it on the floor.
Well you can waste your dime
Markin' too much time
We're dancin' right out the door
Hey, hey, hey
