Night’s On Fire Lyrics By David Nail

    cue the music out the driveway
    slow summer on a friday
    here we go again wild in the wind
    mama knows she’s gonna be late
    hit the party just to watch her dance
    good to go when she grabs your hand
    like a shot from a gun it’s a dead run
    the first leg of a getaway plan

    pre
    you burn rubber when you smoke them tires
    day’s gone and the night’s on fire

    she’s telling you turn off the highway
    the sunset melts all the blue away
    blackbird watching on the telephone wire
    whiskey on her lips and the night’s on fire
    littered with stars close enough to touch
    july promise in the back of that truck
    her every move was taking you higher
    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fireoohh ooohh

    she’s a seat laid back a boy’s dream
    drawin’ hearts in the window steam
    she’s a gettin’ you right knows what you like
    and pours it on like gasoline
    when you know what you’re headed to
    what’s a red blooded boy to do

    she’s telling you turn off the highway
    the sunset melts all the blue away
    blackbird watching on the telephone wire
    whiskey on her lips and the night’s on fire
    littered with stars close enough to touch
    july promise in the back of that truck
    her every move was taking you higher
    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fireoohh
    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fireoohh
    she’s telling you turn off the highway
    the sunset melts all the blue away
    blackbird watching on the telephone wire
    whiskey on her lips and the night’s on fire
    littered with stars close enough to touch
    july promise in the back of that truck
    her every move was taking you higher
    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fire oohh
    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fire oohh

    you try to play it cool but the night’s on fire oohh oohh
