Week 16 - Under The Same Old Lights (190414)

from Song A Week, Volume 4 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Love the way the engine sounds after that sun goes down
Gotta’ grab the keys and take a ride
To a little place I know, chicken’s hot and the beers are cold
And the women, man you won’t believe your eyes

Who’s that tearin’ up the floor? Never seen her before
Better make sure she’s got a drink
Takin’ turns on the old jukebox keep dancin’ and we just don’t stop
Heart starts up when she gives me a wink

Something tells me she can rock my world
Hope the band knows how to play Brown Eyed Girl
We can show everybody from the bar to the lobby
How to have a good time tonight
Make it feel brand new under the same old lights

This place always hits the spot, oh and I swear she’s got
About the best smile I’ve seen all year
Stick around ‘til closing time last dance and her hand’s in mine
Tilts her head, says let’s get outta’ here

Something tells me she can rock my world
Hope the band knows how to play Brown Eyed Girl
We can show everybody from the bar to the lobby
How to have a good time tonight
Make it feel brand new under the same old lights

Well I can’t believe my luck we’re getting in my truck
Headin’ home with her right by my side
But if she don’t stick around you know where I’ll be found
Tomorrow night under the same old lights
