Lights Of My Hometown Lyrics

by Brantley Gilbert

You know the lights of my hometown
They come alive when the sun goes down.

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e112125-brantley_gilbert~lights_of_my_hometown_lyrics.html ]
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!
