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