Hey Good Lookin'
Drifting Cowboys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, hey, good lookin',
Whatcha got cookin'?
How's about cookin' somethin' up with me?
Hey, sweet baby,
Don't you think maybe
We could find us a brand new recipe?
I got a hot-rod Ford and a two-dollar bill
And I know a spot right over the hill.
There's soda pop and the dancin's free,
So if you wanna have fun come along with me.
Hey, good lookin',
Whatcha got cookin'?
How's about cookin' somethin' up with me?

I'm free and ready,
So we can go steady.
How's about savin' all your time for me?
No more lookin',
I know I've been tooken.
How's about keepin' steady company?

I'm gonna throw my date-book over the fence
And find me one for five or ten cents.
I'll keep it 'til it's covered with age
'Cause I'm writin' your name down on every page.
Hey, good lookin',




Whatcha got cookin'?
How's about cookin' somethin' up with me?

Overall Meaning

The song "Hey Good Lookin'" by Drifting Cowboys is a classic country tune that was first recorded by Hank Williams in 1951. The song is a flirtatious and playful invitation to a potential love interest to cook and dance with the singer. The opening line, "Hey, hey, good lookin', whatcha got cookin'?" sets the tone for the rest of the song, which is filled with cheeky double entendres and playful banter.


The singer of the song is a confident and charming man who takes pride in his hot-rod Ford and two-dollar bill. He is looking for a fun and adventurous partner to join him on a night of dancing and soda pop. He even suggests throwing his date book over the fence and finding a new love interest to fill its pages with.
