Buckle Up – Lyrics
Country cousins stepping out on city sides
Want to warm you and wish you all a lovely time
Dirty dozens gonna push their pistols gonna pull their pride
Oh so friendly flirties change their partners choose up sides
Buckle up your seat belt baby
It’s gonna be a bumpy ride
Buckle up your sweet self sugar
Ya drive me crazy ya fly me high
Re re repercussions echo and the reverbs sigh
Careless caution it’s not the case but what’s inside
Buckle up your seat belt baby
It’s gonna be a bumpy ride
Buckle up your sweet self sugar
Ya drive me crazy ya fly me high
What can pass for safety measures
You can tell ’em not to wreck your treasures
Not this time, not ever, not next time
Make secure some sons and lovers
It’s all made clear with see-thru covers
We’re too close, too close for comfort now
Buckle up that seat belt baby
It’s gonna be a bumpity bump
Buckle up your sweet self sugar
Ya make me crazy and I jumpity jump
