Pick Her Up
Hot Country Knights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To ask that little girl
You've been diggin' on
If she wants to go out and she said yes
Now you're wantin' impress
But you ain't got no Casanova knowhow
You ain't gotta read a book to
Get her on the hook
If you wanna do her right on a Saturday night
This is all you've gotta do
Pick her up in a pickup truck
And take her out to a honky tonk
Turn an ice cold longneck up
Dance around to an old jukebox
If you really wanna rock the world
Of a pretty little country girl
Just know when you pick her up
Pick her up in a pickup truck
(Ain't that right, Travis?)
Yeah, buddy, she ain't got no use for a BMW
Or wine from a hundred dollar bottle
She'd rather bounce around in
The outskirts of town
Shotgunnin' in a muddy Silverado
If you're gonna have a chance
To closin' time romance
Put the switch on the neon hard
Don't you forget the first step 'fore
You get to two steps
Knowin' right where to start
Pick her up in a pickup truck
And take her out to a honky tonk
Turn an ice cold longneck up
Dance around to an old jukebox
If you really wanna rock the world
Of a pretty little country girl
Just know when you pick her up
Pick her up in a pickup truck
Go get her son! Woo! yeah!
She wants to party and paint the town
Kick up her boots to a country sound
Come on, buddy, don't let us down
Pick her up in a pickup truck
And take her out to a honky tonk
Turn an ice cold longneck up
Dance around to an old jukebox
If you really wanna rock the world
Of a pretty little country girl
Just know when you pick her up
Pick her up in a pickup truck
You might even make her fall in love
Pick her up in a pickup truck

Line by Line Meaning
So you finally got the nerve
You worked up the courage to do something you've been hesitant about
To ask that little girl
To approach a girl you've been interested in
You've been diggin' on
You've had feelings for her
If she wants to go out and she said yes
She accepted your invitation to go out
Now you're wantin' impress
You want to make a good impression
But you ain't got no Casanova knowhow
You don't have any expert knowledge on how to win her over
You ain't gotta read a book to
You don't need to do anything too fancy
Get her on the hook
To attract her attention
She's a country baby through and through
She loves country living and is a true country girl
If you wanna do her right on a Saturday night
If you want to do something special on a weekend night
This is all you've gotta do
You only need to do this simple thing
Pick her up in a pickup truck
Take her out in your truck
And take her out to a honky tonk
Take her to a country bar
Turn an ice cold longneck up
Drink a cold beer
Dance around to an old jukebox
Dance to some classic country tunes
If you really wanna rock the world
If you want to impress her
Of a pretty little country girl
Of a beautiful girl who loves country life
Just know when you pick her up
Remember that when you go get her
Pick her up in a pickup truck
Take her out in your truck
(Ain't that right, Travis?)
Confirming with Travis if he agrees
Yeah, buddy,
Agreeing with what was just said
she ain't got no use for a BMW
She doesn't care for luxury cars like a BMW
Or wine from a hundred dollar bottle
She doesn't care for expensive wine
She'd rather bounce around in
She prefers to have fun
The outskirts of town
In the rural areas outside of town
Shotgunnin' in a muddy Silverado
Riding in a pickup truck on a bumpy road
If you're gonna have a chance
If you are going to have any hope
To closin' time romance
To get close to her at the end of the night
Put the switch on the neon hard
Turn up the brightness of the neon lights
Don't you forget the first step 'fore
Remember what you need to do first
You get to two steps
Before you do anything more complicated
Knowin' right where to start
Having a plan and knowing how to begin
Go get her son! Woo! yeah!
Cheering the person on to go get the girl
She wants to party and paint the town
She wants to have fun and go out
Kick up her boots to a country sound
Dancing in cowboy boots to country music
Come on, buddy, don't let us down
Encouraging the person to not disappoint them or the girl
You might even make her fall in love
You could win her heart over

I love how dirks bentley is doing this as a joke, and it’s better than half the country artists on mainstream right now.
54raceman
Hunter Niemi ikr leave it to dierks lol
Roger Lawton
It’s also better than anything he’s ever done. It’s his first actual country album.
Hunter Niemi
Clint Allen I wouldn’t go as far to say that, but I do like this better than most of his other stuff. Reminds me of “what was I thinkin?”
Darin Fry
Lol. I didnt make the connection this was dirks at first lol. Ps so great to hear tritt again! One of the greatest underappreciated talents in country ever imo
Hunter Niemi
Darin Fry I completely agree. I’ve grown to kiss people like Travis, becuase they just aren’t around anymore. But, I’m glad this is beginning to change with guys like Luke combs, Jon Pardi , Chris Stapleton, etc
Gerald S
