Song Lyrics

Well I finally found a sitter who'd stay late on Friday night,
So I could do some dancin' underneath them neon lights
Get out of the kitchen do a little catchin' up with my old man
And I couldn't help but notice girl that you keep slinkin' by
Stealin' his attention with the twinkle in your eye
You're causin' an involuntary clenchin' of the fingers on my hand
So honey move along and find a place to park yourself while you still can

Don't make me take my earrings out
Cause I'll show you what a catfight's all about
I'll throw you down and mop the floor
A man like mine's worth fightin' for
Don't make me take my earrings out

And I bet I spent an hour at the bathroom vanity
Tryin' to turn a mom into a ballroom beauty queen
I don't wanna mess it up but trust me honey I ain't scared to break a nail
Yeah and I'd be glad to spend a night in jail
(aw hell! )

So don't make me take my earrings out
Cause I'll show you what a catfight's all about
If you come waltzin' by once more
I'll drag your butt right out the door
So don't make me take my earrings out
(ah-haw! )

So don't make me take my earrings out
Cause I'll show you what a catfight's all about
I'll throw you down and mop the floor
A man like mine's worth fightin' for
Don't make me take my earrings out
If you come waltzin' by once more
I'll throw you down and mop the floor
And drag your butt right out the door
A man like mine's worth fightin' for
So don't make me take my earrings out!
