Lyrics

[Verse 1]

When I get off of work on Friday

After workin' like a dog all week

I go to meet the boys for a cold one

At a little joint up the street

[Verse 2]

They got a jukebox in the corner

Full of old country tunes

Feed it 5 dollars worth of quarters

Is the first thing I always do

[Verse 3]

'Cause I need a little twang

A little hillbilly bendin' on some guitar strings

Some peddle steel whinin' like the whistle of an old freight train

To get that foot stompin', honky-tonkin' feeling flowin' through my veins

I need a little twang, twang, twang

[Verse 4]

Well, I like a lot of kinds of music

I try to keep an open mind

Dependin' on the mood to strike me

If I'm gonna stay till closin' time

[Verse 5]

So when I wanna lift my spirits

To get me feelin' worth a dang

I know I'm gonna have to hear it

'Cause I gotta have some Hank to hang

[Verse 6]

'Cause I need a little twang

A little hillbilly bendin' on some guitar strings

Some peddle steel whinin' like the whistle of an old freight train

To get that foot stompin', honky-tonkin' feelin' flowin' through my veins

I need a little twang

[Verse 7]

I need a little twang

A little hillbilly bendin' on some guitar strings

Some peddle steel whinin' like the whistle of an old freight train

To get that foot stompin', honky-tonkin' feeling flowin' through my veins

I need a little twang, twang, twang

I need a little twang, twang, twang
