beer can hill

well

i learned how to walk and i learned how to run in bakersfield

i should've done time over things i'd done in bakersfield

i tasted my first taste of romance in bakersfield

i learned how to fight and i learned how to dance in bakersfield

dancin' on beer can hill

overlookin' bakersfield

remembering my first thrill

dancin' on beer can hill

i made part of my livin' in a honky tonk bar in bakersfield

picked a little cotton and a lotta guitar in bakersfield

well

you couldn't do better but you won't do bad in bakersfield

slow dancin' out here is sort of a fad in bakersfield

dancin' on beer can hill

overlookin' bakersfield

remembering my first thrill

dancin' on beer can hill

i drank a lot of beer since i was a kid in bakersfield

did a little time over things i did in bakersfield

ten years later made me man of the year in bakersfield

and i'm duckin' and dodgin' and dancin' out here in bakersfield

dancin' on beer can hill

overlookin' bakersfield

remembering my first thrill

dancin' on beer can hill

dancin' on beer can hill

overlookin' bakersfield

dancin' on beer can hill.
