American Nights

On these American nights That's when we all go out That's when we feel alive That's when the tops go down I break a dollar at the bar And make the jukebox sing So tell Rosie what you want The first round's on me We're gonna light up these streets baby Shake the dust off all your dreams baby We're gonna lose a little sleep baby On these American nights! Under the stars and stripes We live and die with our friends There's nothing we can't do As soon as that sun sets I'm gonna find me a girl I'm gonna try to make her laugh And when she gives me that look I'm gonna take her hand 'Cause everything about her reminds me Of all the broken romance behind me I'm giving love another chance to find me On these American nights! Daylight please don't come up any higher Cause we've got main street lit up like a fire And nothing compares to breathing the air When I'm back in my hometown Someday my kids will run like I did On these streets and old playgrounds! I wanna drive all night Turn up the radio loud Left hand in the breeze I shut the whole world out So come and ride with me baby I'm saving you the front seat baby Feeling nothing but free baby On these American nights! Ooooohhhhh ooooohhhhh Ooooohhhhh ooooohhhhh On these American nights!
