The bar shut down, the crowds went home
It wasn’t my plan to end this night alone
But when the lights go out, and the stars don’t shine
A man’s gotta do what he can to feel fine
I mosey on home, pour a glass of rye
Turn on the radio, let out a sigh
This lonely cowboy’s solo command
Even if it’s just a one-night (hand) stand
It’s a one-night stand, a back-up plan,
No need for a partner, just my own right hand.
I’m riding solo, and I’m in demand,
Dancing with the rhythm of a one-night (hand) stand.
Now, I’ve had my share of lovers come and go,
Some were sweet as honey, some were cold as snow.
But when the nights get long, and the stars don’t align,
A cowboy’s gotta do what he can to feel fine.
I ain’t ashamed, it’s a natural thing
Like a guitar man just plucking his string
So I’ll take my time, and I’ll make it grand
Tonight’s the night for a one-man band
It’s a one-night stand, a back-up plan
No need for a partner, just my own right hand
I’m riding solo, and I’m in demand
Dancing with the rhythm of a one-night (hand) stand
Some dates are messy, and some dates fall through
But me and mister righty never miss a rendezvous
Spread around the magic, all men are unified
It doesn’t cost shifting to manual override
So, here’s to the nights when the world feels small
Turn off my phone, it’s a free-for-all
I’ll be my own partner, I’ll be my own fan
Raisin’ the roof with my one-night handstand
It’s a one-night stand, a back-up plan
No need for a partner, just my own right hand
I’m riding solo, and I’m in demand
Dancing with the rhythm of a one-night (hand) stand
So, if you see me smiling, and my boots don’t drag
Just know I’ve been dancing with my saddlebag
It’s a cowboy’s secret, part of the brand
Enjoy the moment for a one-night (hand) stand
