American Nights

American Nights - Plain White Ts

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'll 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 the sun sets

I'm gonna find me a girl

I'm gonna try to make her laugh

And if 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

Nothing compares to breathing the air

When I'm back in my home town

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

On these American nights
