Red Neckin' Love Makin' Night Lyrics

Hey!
Hello baby, Conway here
Let me lay this in your ear
Get ready to go
We gonna roll about sundown

I got some boogie woogie music
On the old 8-track
Yeah, I got the top laid back
We'll go cruisin'
We'll go foolin' around

Well here I am baby, ready to play
Slide it on in, we'll slip away
We gotta get it, we ain't got a minute to waste

I got a 6-pack of longnecks
In the trunk on ice
Oohh - but, you sure look nice
Makes me want to hug you
And kiss you all over your face

It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
You ain't had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night

--- Instrumental ---

Stars in your eyes, wind in your hair
Oh, what a down home love affair
When we go out walkin'
We know what we're talkin' about

Listen to the wipperwills
How they sing
Just like us, they doin' their thin'
We know what we got
When the night gets hot down south

It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
You ain't had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night

It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
You ain't had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night

--- Instrumental ---
laugh... HEY!
eat your heart out children
laugh ...you know I love you
(red neckin', love makin' night)
now don't wreck-in my phone son
let him in there
hey, hey, hey
(hold on tight)
(ah yes)

It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
You ain't had much till you
Been touched in the moonlight
You feel it most when you get
Real close and you hold on tight
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night
It's a red-neckin', love-makin' night...

Conway Twitty (1 September 1933 – 5 June 1993), born Harold Lloyd Jenkins, was one of the United States' most successful artists of the 20th century. Twitty had the most singles (55) reach Number 1 on various national music charts. Conway Twitty's across the board totals were greater than that of Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, the Beatles, and Garth Brooks. Most notably known as a country music singer, Twitty also enjoyed success in early Rock and Roll, R&B, and Pop music (among other genres). He teamed up with Loretta Lynn to form one of country music's most successful business partnerships.


Origin of Jenkins Stage Name--------- Jenkins felt that his real name wasn't marketable, and he changed his show business name in 1957. (Harold Lloyd Jenkins would always remain his legal name, however). Looking at a road map, he spotted Conway, Arkansas and Twitty, Texas. Thus, he went with the professional name of "Conway Twitty".[citation needed]

Alternatively, Jenkins met a Richmond, VA, man named W. Conway Twitty Jr. through Jenkins' manager in a New York City restaurant. The manager served in the army with the real Conway Twitty. Later, the manager suggested to Jenkins that he take the name as his stage name because it had a ring to it. The Richmond Conway Twitty subsequently recorded the song, "What's in a Name But Trouble," in the mid-1960s, lamenting the loss of his name to Jenkins. The flip side of the 45 RPM record was "The Purple, Purple People Eater, Eater." (The more well known version of Purple People Eater, however, now having sold over 100,000,000 copies, was recorded by Sheb Wooley.)
