There's a bonfire burnin'   Got Bocephus blarin' louder than allowed   Out in our neck of the neighborhood   If you wanna see follow me   Over the river and through the woods      When the bugs and the beer start bitin'   There's bound to be some friendly fightin'   Usually little Becky Lee winds up   Jumpin' up on somebody's hood, don't she dance good?   Join the crowd gathered 'round   Over the river and through the woods      Just follow my tail lights, out past the streetlights   Left then a hard right, they're goin' all night   We'll do a little what we want   After one long week of doin' what we should   Over the river and through the woods      At first I thought she was kiddin'   When she mentioned skinny dippin'   She said, follow me through the trees   Yes siree, unless I misunderstood   We'll splash and splish with the fish   Over the river and through the woods      That's my beer can next to her beer can   Next to my work pants up there on dry land   We'll do a little what we want   After one long week of doin' what we should   Over the river and through the woods      That's my sore head layin' in my truck bed   Eyes blood shot red, hearin' what my mama said   We did a little what we want   After one long week of doin' what we should   Over the river and through the woods   Yeah, over the river and through the woods
