[Intro]

You know the lights of my hometown

They come alive when the sun goes down

[Verse 1]

We got the 50-yard line on a Friday night

Mainstreet drag lined up with red taillights

And the dashboard glow from the radio

Kick your console back, pull your girl real close

Got the summer stars out in the backwoods

Got the windows down, make it feel so good

To lock your high beams in on a mud hole

If you're where I'm from, then you damn sure know

[Chorus 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Oh yeah, we hold our lighters up if it's a good song

Little Lynyrd Skynyrd got you 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-staring at them tan lines

Yeah, we throwing down until the cops come

See the blue lights flash, boys, it's time to run

[Chorus 1]

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

[Bridge]

Light a flashlight on a tombstone

Let your best friend know that he ain't alone

Go and pop a top, pour a little out

Just to let him know we're still thinking about him

[Chorus 2]

Man, the lights of our hometown

He almost comes alive when the sun goes down

I'm talking about the lights of our hometown

He almost comes alive when the sun goes down

[Chorus 1]

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

[Verse 3]

Yeah, we got the 50-yard line on a Friday night

And Main Street drag lined up with red taillights

Hell yeah, we hold our lighters up

We hold our lighters up

Yeah, we hold our lighters up when the sun goes down

Let me see them lighters

[Outro]

Talking about the lights of my hometown

They come alive when, yeah, they come alive

When the sun goes down
