She was hot as Nashville chicken
He was cool as a Firebird hood
They locked eyes didn’t waste no time
They knew the getting was damn good
Then they danced the night away, she said Babe
If this ain’t love, what’s it instead
He said it’s damn near close enough, so come on, shake a leg

Trains don’t just hang around the station
Get on down the track, chugging on ahead
You might miss it all messing ‘round and waiting
So, come on, Baby, shake a leg

They went straight downtown and found
The justice of the peace
They tied the knot peeled out the parking lot
Tore off to Myrtle beach
They got a motel room and matching tattoos
Then they took off down the road
Tequila in their bloodstream and sand in their clothes

Yeah, them trains don’t just hang around the station
Get on down the track, chugging on ahead
You might miss it all messing ‘round and waiting
So, come on, Baby, shake a leg

What happens next is anybody’s guess
In this hurricane romance
Tell the truth, I ain’t thought it through that far out in advance
‘Cause it ain’t about how it all plays out
And what happens in the end
This here song is for the life
L-I-V-I-N

Yeah, them trains don’t just hang around the station
Get on down the track, chugging on ahead
You might miss it all messing ‘round and waiting
So, come on, Baby, shake a leg
Come on, Baby, shake a leg
Come on, Baby, shake a leg

Shake a leg, Baby
