He gets off work about 5
Been gearin' up all day
For a hot friday night
There's a big old party
Down by the lake
Got a cooler and a case
Got girls all over the place
When the sun starts sinkin down real low
Hooks master speakers to the stereo
Climbs up in the bed of his truck
Starts screaming out at the top of his lungs
When you do it in the country you go thump thump thump
When you do it in the city you go b**p b**p b**p
So throw up your hands and jump jump jump
cos' everyone wants a go
The real nitty gritty
Country or the city
Everybody wants to go thump thump thump
She gets off work 4:15
Jumps in the tanning bed
Then she calls up Irene
She says hey girlfriend
Do you want to run around
Im on a mission
Im going fishin'
For a hot party out on the town
They found a place where the band was rockin'
They boys were many and the tops poppin'
Up on the bar
Puttin on a show
Kickin' up their heels
Lettin' everybody know
When you do it in the country you go thump thump thump
When you do it in the city you go b**p b**p b**p
So throw up your hands and jump jump jump
cos' everyone wants a go
The real nitty gritty
Country or the city
Everybody wants to go thump thump thump
When you do it in the country you go thump thump thump
When you do it in the city you go b**p b**p b**p
