Plain White T's - American Nights lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

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 dolla at the bar & make the jukebox sing

So tell Rosie what u want, the first round's on me

(Chorus)

We're goin' to light up these streets, baby

Shake the dust off your dreams, baby

We're gonna lose a lil sleep, baby

On these American nights

(Verse 2)

Under the stars & shops we live in doubt with our friends

There's nothing we can't do, as soon as our sun sets

I'm goin' to find you girl, I'm goin' to try & make u laugh

And once she kiss me without look I'm gonna take her hand

(Chorus)

Cos' everythin' about her reminds me

Of all the broken romance behind me

I'm givin' luv anotha chance to find me

On these American nights

(Bridge)

Days like these don't come up any higher

We've got main street lid up like a fire

Nothin' compares to breathin' the air

When I'm back in my hometown

Someday my kids will run like I did

On these streets & ole' play grounds

(Bridge)

I want to drive all night, turn up the radio loud

Luv's hangin' in the breeze, I shut the whole world out

(Chorus)

So come & ride with me, baby

I'm savin' u the front seat, baby

Feeling nothing but free, baby

On these American nights
