You know the lights of my hometown
|
They come alive when the sun goes down.
|
|
You got the 50-yard line on a Friday night
|
Main street drag lined up with red tail lights.
|
And your dashboard glow from the radio
|
Get the console back, pull your girl real close!
|
Got the summer stars out in the backwoods,
|
Got the windows down, make you feel so good
|
To lock your high beams in on a mud hole
|
If you're where I'm from, man, ya damn sure know
|
|
Chorus:
|
About the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive when the sun goes down.
|
Talking about the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive when the sun goes down.
|
|
We hold our lighters up if it's a good song
|
Little Lynyrd Skynyrd gotcha singing along.
|
We pour some gasoline on a pile of wood
|
Just a little too much will make it burn real good.
|
We got the moonshine, I'm talking both kinds
|
Have you seeing double looking at them tan lines
|
Yeah, we're throwing down till the cops come
|
See the blue lights flash, boys it's time to run.
|
|
Chorus:
|
About the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive when the sun goes down.
|
Talking about the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive when the sun goes down,
|
The sun goes down, the sun goes down.
|
|
How about a flashlight on a gravestone
|
Let your best friend know that he ain't alone.
|
Go on and pop a top, pour a little out,
|
Just to let him know we're still thinking about him
|
Man, the lights of our hometown
|
He almost comes alive when the sun goes down.
|
I'm talking about the lights of my hometown
|
He almost comes alive when the sun goes down.
|
Talking about the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive when the sun goes down,
|
The sun goes down, the sun goes down
|
Talking about the lights of my hometown
|
Yeah, they come alive, yeah, they come alive
|
When the sun goes down!
|
Oh yeah, when the sun comes down!
|
|
Hell yeah, we got the 50-yard line on a Friday night
|
And Main Street drag lined up with red tail lights.
|
Hell yeah, we hold our lighters up
|
Yeah, the lighters up
|
Yeah, we hold our lighters up when the sun goes down!
|
Let me see them lighters!
