TEXAS HOLD 'EM

Lyrics of TEXAS HOLD 'EM by Beyoncé

Chorus

This ain′t Texas (ooh)

Ain't no hold ′em (hey)

So lay your cards down, down, down, down

So park your Lexus (ooh)

And throw your keys up (hey)

Stick around, 'round, 'round, ′round, ′round (stick around)

Chorus

And I'll be damned if I can′t slow-dance with you

Come pour some sugar on me, honey too

It's a real-life boogie and a real-life hoedown

Don′t be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, woo, ha

Verse

There's a tornado (there′s a tornado)

In my city (in my city)

Hit the basement (hit the basement)

That shit ain't pretty (shit ain't pretty)

Rugged whiskey (rugged whiskey)

′Cause we survivin′ ('cause we survivin′)

Puffin' red-cup kisses, sweet redemption, passin′ time, yeah

Pre-chorus

Ooh, one step to the right

We headed to the dive bar we always thought was nice

Ooh, run me to the left

Then spin me in the middle, boy, I can't read your mind

Chorus

This ain′t Texas (oh)

Ain't no hold 'em (hey)

So lay your cards down, down, down, down

So park your Lexus (ooh)

And throw your keys up (hey)

Stick around, ′round, ′round, 'round, ′round (stick around)

Chorus

And I'll be damned if I can′t slow-dance with you

Come pour some sugar on me, honey too

It's a real-life boogie and a real-life hoedown

Don′t be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, woo

And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you

Come pour some liquor on me, honey too

It's a real-life boogie and a real-life hoedown

Don′t be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, woo

Hook

(Woo-hoo)

(Woo-hoo)

(Woo-hoo)

Verse

There′s a heatwave (there's a heatwave)

Comin′ at us (comin' at us)

Too hot to think straight (too hot to think straight)

Too cold to panic (cold to panic)

All other problems

Just feel dramatic (just feel dramatic)

And now we′re runnin' to the first bar that we find, yeah

Pre-chorus

Ooh, one step to the right

We headed to the dive bar we always thought was nice

Ooh, you run to the left

Just with me in the middle, boy, I can′t read your mind

Chorus

This ain't Texas (oh)

Ain't no hold ′em (hey)

So lay your cards down, down, down, down (oh)

So park your Lexus (hey)

Throw your keys up (hey)

Stick around, ′round, 'round, ′round, 'round (stick around)

Chorus

And I′ll be damned if I cannot dance with you

Come pour some sugar on me, honey too

It's a real-life boogie and a real-life hoedown

Don′t be a bitch, come take it to the floor now, woo

And I'll be damned if I cannot dance with you

Come pour some liquor on me, honey too

It's a real-life boogie and a real-life hoedown

Don′t be a -, come take it to the floor now, ooh

Outro

Take it to the floor now, ooh (oops, spurs, boots)

To the floor now, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (tap back, oops, shoot)

Come take it to the floor now, ooh

And I′ll be damned if I cannot dance with you

Baby, pour that sugar and liquor on me too (spurs, spurs, boots)

Sologenic, photogenic, shoot
