Lyrics

[Verse 1]

They got a vintage Victrola, 1951

Full of my favorite records that I grew up on

They got ol' Hank and Lefty, and there's B-24

[Chorus]

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

[Verse 2]

I'm gonna spend the night like every night before

Playin' E.T., and I'll play him some more

I gotta have a shot of them old troubadours

[Chorus]

Yeah, set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

[Verse 3]

All my neon neighbors, they like what I play

'Cause they've heard it every night since you walked away

Every day, they replace ol' B-24

'Cause every night I run a needle through "Walkin' the Floor"

Every night, I run a needle through "Walkin' the Floor"

[Bridge]

I'm gonna spend the night like every night before

Playin' E.T., I'm gonna play him some more

I gotta have a shot of them old troubadours

[Chorus]

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

[Verse 4]

I said set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"

Set 'em up Joe, and play "Walkin' the Floor"
