This is the opening track from American Country music artist Chris Young's third studio album, Neon. In an interview with Reuters, he described it as a transitional song from the previous album. He said: "It is a sexy love song, and I just thought it was a cool way to start this record to let people know that even though there is some stuff that is different, we're not going off in a completely new direction." Chris Young wrote the tune with Rhett Akins and Ben Hayslip. Speaking of the writing session that spawned the song at a media event, the singer said his co-writers deserve much of the credit for the song's success. "I had no idea that day walking in; I had nothing," Young admitted. "It was actually Ben's idea. He was like, 'What do you think of something like this?' I said, 'I don't really have something like that for the record.' I think we wrote it in about an hour and went to lunch. It was a really simple day. I found that the majority of the stuff I'm putting on a record doesn't take all day. We all like the idea and we've got the right melody for the idea. [When] it's all marrying correctly, it falls out pretty quick. It might get stumped on a line here or there, really trying to hammer out what the best way is to say it, but most of the time that's how it happens. If we've got the idea and everybody's on the same track, it falls out pretty quick."
Ain't nothin' goin' on in town tonight Except the loud party crowd drinkin' too much beer So baby tell me would it be alright If we just take a little rain check and stay right here I'm sure we could find somethin' to do As a matter of fact, baby why don't you Grab a couple glasses and a bottle of wine Walk down the hall and turn down the lights Baby while you're at it you might as well let down your hair And I can take it from there Yeah, I can take it from there I'm gonna put an old record on Conway Twitty yeah girl I'd love to lay you down Kill that ringer on your telephone Ain't gonna stop lovin' you til the candle burns out Oh there it is that little smile of yours Come on baby whatcha waitin' for Grab a couple glasses and a bottle of wine Walk down the hall and turn down the lights Baby while you're at it you might as well let down your hair And I can take it from there Tomorrow's gonna be here way too soon Let's not waste another minute Girl I've got plans for me and you Just grab a couple glasses and that bottle of wine Walk down the hall and darlin' turn down those lights Baby while you're at it you might as well let down your hair And I can take it from there I can take it from there I can take it from there Yeah yeah yeah yeah
