In The Right Place – Brooks & Dunn


Hey, pretty girl, just look at you tonight

A team a horses couldn’t drag me away

You ain’t got no business being lonely, baby

Oh, let me put a smile on your face

I hope you don’t mind if I put a little

Otis Redding on, pour us a glass of wine

We’ll dance like drunken fools ‘cross my living room

Baby, pull your body close to mine

If you’re needing a friend to talk to, baby

Lay it on me, I’ve got all night

If you’re wanting a man who’s wanting to hold ya

Come on, give these arms of mine a try

And if you’re looking for something a little stronger

You ain’t gotta look no longer

You’re in the right place

Yeah, you’re in the right place

Oh, look at me, I went and kissed you

Too late now to turn back now, you’ve got

That certain something and I just can’t resist you

Let me show you what I’m all about

If you’re needing a friend to talk to, baby

Lay it on me, I’ve got all night

If you’re wanting a man who’s wanting to hold ya

Come on, give these arms of mine a try

And if you’re looking for something a little stronger

Oh, baby, you ain’t gotta look no longer

You’re in the right place

Oh, yeah, you’re in the right place

If you’re needing a friend to talk to, baby

Lay it on me, I’ve got all night

If you’re wanting a man who’s wanting to hold ya

Come on, give these arms of mine a try

And if you’re looking for something a little stronger

Hey, baby, you ain’t gotta look no longer

If you’re needing a friend to talk to, baby

Lay it on me, I’ve got all night

If you’re wanting a man who’s wanting to hold ya

Come on, give these arms of mine a try
