[Ray] Hey I like to do a little rockin'
[Hank] Ray, I get a little rowdy myself
See if you can sing the high part brother
[Ray] Hank I can if you give me some help
[Both] Cause we're the kind if we set our mind we're going
to do it or bust
Hey we ain't half bad for two old cats like us

[Hank] There ain't nothin' like honky tonk music (now)
When you get an itching to play
[Ray] And singing those songs like Hey Good Lookin'
And baby tell me what I say (that'll work)
[Both] We can take it to the limit or take it to the bus
Ain't no problem for two old cats like us

We've been down a whole lot of alleys
Shook a whole lot of cans
Ain't too much prowlin' or howlin' we don't understand
Had a few doors slammed on our tails
We've been kissed and cussed
But everything's cool for two old cats like us
(play a little)

[Hank] Now this younger generation Ray is keeping us on our toes
[Ray] Playing everything from western swing to that good ol' rock and roll
[Both] But here we are smacked down in the middle
But I think we can adjust
Hell there ain't nothing new for two old cats like us
(tell the truth now)

We've been down a whole lot of alleys
Shook a whole lot of cans
Ain't too much prowlin' or howlin' we don't understand
Had a few doors slammed on our tails
We've been kissed and cussed
But everything's cool for two old cats like us

But everything's cool for two old cats like us
[Hank] Let's go
[Ray] Alright
