Get all dolled up in your Sunday best Put on your blue hat and your brand new dress Now don’t you worry, now don’t you pout ‘Cause tonight we’re steppin’ out
On fifteen bucks that I work for We’ll travel near and we’ll travel far Let the folks call us “gadabouts” ‘Cause tonight we’re steppin’ out
Oh, we’re steppin’ out tonight We’ll go where the lights are bright Hold you in my arms so tight We won’t come home till dawn On fifty cents worth of gasoline I’ll drive the old Ford like a limousine With the fender smashed and one light out ‘Cause tonight we’re steppin’ out
With two hot dogs and a coke for you Maybe I’ll rate a glass of brew We’ll get happy, we’ll sing and shout Because tonight we’re steppin’ out
We’ll go to a tavern and cut a rug I’ll hold you while you jitterbug If one cut’s in and one’s left out Oh, tonight we’re steppin’ out
Oh, we’re steppin’ out tonight We’ll go where the lights are bright Hold you in my arms so tight We won’t come home till dawn On fifty cents worth of gasoline I’ll drive the old Ford like a limousine With the fender smashed and one light out ‘Cause tonight we’re steppin’ out
