This truck needs a half tank
These wheels need a two-lane
This radio needs three songs to play
To get me across town to you

That dress needs to slip off
That hair needs to come down
Friday nights need to do
What Friday nights need to do
That's the truth

Yeah, birds need bees and ice needs whiskey
Boys like me need the girls like you to kiss me
Fishing in the dark needs Nitty Gritty
Under that pale moon

Sweet tea needs that sugar stirring
Small town nights need both ends burning
Shades need drawing, hearts need falling
Boots need knockin'

Knockin' boots
Knockin' boots
Me and you

Long weeks need a weekend
Cheap drinks need a-slinging
That dance floor needs some me on you
And you want me tonight

Sing-a-longs need to be sung
Tip bells need to be rung
Last calls needa call that cab
And backseats need I want you so bad

Yeah, birds need bees and ice needs whiskey
Boys like me need the girls like you to kiss me
Fishing in the dark needs Nitty Gritty
Under that pale moon

Sweet tea needs that sugar stirring
Small town nights need both ends burning
Shades need drawing, hearts need falling
Boots need knockin'

Knockin' boots
Knockin' boots
Girl me and you

Doors need shutting
Lights need cutting
Lips need locking
Boots need knockin'

And birds need bees and ice needs whiskey
Boys like me need the girls like you to kiss me
Fishing in the dark needs Nitty Gritty
Under that pale moon

Sweet tea needs that sugar stirring
Small town nights need both ends burnin'
Shades need drawing, hearts need falling
Boots need knockin'

Knockin' boots
Mmm, knockin' boots
Me and you, oh
Knockin' boots
