   I'LL LET THE JUKEBOX DO MY TALKIN'

Friday night is here again, and I'm not hard to find
I'm back in this honky-tonk, and there's a reason why
She'll be here before too long, I hope she'll look for me
Tonight I'll tell her how I feel, and I won't have to speak

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

Met her here two months ago, now we dance all the time
But when I try to ask her out, all I can do is smile
My heart pounds inside my chest whenever we get close
Tonight I think I've found a way I can let her know

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
     and by George I'll win her heart
     I'll pick A-5, "Check Yes or No"
     - That's a real good place to start
     I'm too shy to tell her
     that I feel this way
     So I'll put money in the slot
     and let the music play
     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'

     I'll let the jukebox do my talkin'
