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 could 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, livin' in Bakersfield
Remembering my first thrill, overlookin' Bakersfield
Dancin' on Beer Can Hill overlookin' Bakersfield
Remembering my first thrill, overlookin' Bakersfield
