Lyrics

Verse

Feed store closed and the lot went stillRadio leaking from a dashboard grillI asked for a dance like a fool in a hatYou said why not, and that was that

Chorus

Slow dance in a parking lotAin’t pretty but it’s all we gotYou and me in the sodium lightSlow dance in a parking lotcrowd singing along

Verse

A semi rolled by like a rolling amenYou put your head on my chest right thenGravel under boots, a little off timeI never heard a better rhyme

Chorus

Slow dance in a parking lotAin’t pretty but it’s all we gotYou and me in the sodium lightSlow dance in a parking lotcrowd singing along

Verse

Security lights and a stray-cat stareWe didn’t care who was watching thereIf that’s the ballroom I get for lifeI’ll take the asphalt and I’ll take my wife

Chorus

Slow dance in a parking lotAin’t pretty but it’s all we gotYou and me in the sodium lightSlow dance in a parking lotcrowd singing along

Outro

Hold onSlow dance in a parking lotcrowd singing along
