American Nights

Yeah American nights comin' out of that dash Goin' big time on a little bit of cash Ain't nothing better, no there ain't nothing like American nights Somewhere out there in America There's a long haul driver filling up And a welcome-back-home party twelve ounce toast Carolina toes on a California coast to coast The Sun going down Fields lightin' up in two-lane towns Heart's on a hood down airport road Seeing how high they can go Yeah American nights comin' out of that dash Goin' big time on a little bit of cash Raisin' one up, and singin' along Living the words to all those songs American nights slidin' off that sky That "vow that I'll be going home" look in her eyes Ain't nothing better, no there ain't nothing like American nights Yeah these American nights Lipstick paintin' on your baby's lips Overtime workin' that graveyard shift Corner booth kiss in a downtown bar Kids drivin' around in daddy's car Mama waitin' up, steady watchin' the clock Everybody out, here comes the cops Heart's on fire, whiskey on ice, yeah Just another slice Love American nights comin' out of that dash Goin' big time on a little bit of cash Raisin' one up, and singin' along Living the words to all those songs American nights slidin' off that sky That "vow that I'll be going home" look in her eyes Ain't nothing better, no there ain't nothing like American nights Yeah these American nights And at the end of a long hard day You know we just can't wait 'Cause those American nights comin' out of that dash Goin' big time on a little bit of cash Raisin' one up, and singin' along Living the words to all those songs American nights slidin' off that sky That "vow that I'll be going home" look in her eyes Ain't nothing better, no there ain't nothing like American nights Yeah these American nights Yeah American nights
