Bonfire Nights (Raise Your Cup)

Tommy’s truck is rusted out but still roars like a beast

Marissa’s got the baby fed and dinner’s done, at least

Angie’s yellin’ from the porch, “Y’all better grab your chairs!”

Mike’s draggin’ logs, still smellin’ like paint and fresh repairs

🎶 Raise your cup, light it up, it’s a bonfire night!

Boots in the mud, hearts feelin’ right

Neighbors peekin’ out, but we just might

Sing ‘til dawn in the smoky twilight!

Oom-pah-pah! Let’s dance and shout—

These are the nights we talk about! 🎶

Peter’s showin’ off his snakes, Olivia’s runnin’ late

The kids are dancin’ in the yard, marshmallows on a plate

The chickens cluckin’ country tunes, confused but keepin’ time

Someone brought some apple pie and a jug of homemade shine

🎶 Raise your cup, light it up, it’s a bonfire night!

Backyard blaze and stars so bright

Mike’s wet wood finally caught just right

Now nobody’s goin’ home tonight

Oom-pah-pah! Stomp the ground—

Good friends, good fire, all gathered ‘round! 🎶

The fire’s cracklin’, stories fly

Tommy swears he saw a UFO sky-high

Marissa rolls her eyes, Angie sips her tea

Mike’s just proud it ain’t fallin’ down, you see

🎺🎻 Accordion solo, boot stomps, fiddle breaks, and laughter

🎶 Raise your cup, light it up, it’s a bonfire night!

Workin’ hard but we live it right

Laughter loud and spirits light

We’ll keep this party burnin’ bright

Oom-pah-pah! Don’t forget—

These bonfire nights, we ain’t done yet! 🎶
