[Intro]
Tailgate down
Moon sittin’ right
Chrome shining up that gravel
Yeah, it’s that kind of night (woo!)
[Verse 1]
Got that fresh-washed truck, tires still wet
Dust on the road, but the paint job flex
Buddy in the back yellin’, “Turn it up more!”
Girls in cutoffs swingin’ out my door
Snapback low, big buckle flash
Cash in my pocket and a cooler full of glass
Whole damn county gonna know our names
When we roll up loud, lightin’ up that lane (hey!)
[Chorus]
This is the best kind of night
Tailgate throne and the stars on high
Cold beer raised, all the worries outta sight
Pretty little thing in my passenger side
Got my crew, got my pride
Chrome, smoke, steel, and a wild-eyed smile
If you wanna see what “livin’” looks like
Come get a taste of the best kind of night (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Bonfire tall, shootin’ sparks to the clouds
She’s got my flannel on, dancin’ with the crowd
Lips taste sweet, but her laugh hits harder
Than the kick from the steel on my shoulder
Targets on cans at the edge of the field
One, two, three, watch ’em all bow and peel
She bites her lip when I steady that aim
Says, “Boy, you’re trouble,” but she loves this game (mmm)
[Chorus]
This is the best kind of night
Tailgate throne and the stars on high
Cold beer raised, all the worries outta sight
Pretty little thing in my passenger side
Got my crew, got my pride
Chrome, smoke, steel, and a wild-eyed smile
If you wanna see what “livin’” looks like
Come get a taste of the best kind of night
[Verse 3]
Headlights lined like a backroad parade
We’re the main event in this pasture stage
Boots kick dust when the hook line hits
I spin her ‘round slow just to show I can dip
Trigger-finger steady, but my heart runs fast
When she leans in close, hand on my flask
She says, “Take me where the river runs wide”
So I rev that roar, yeah, I love that ride (oh!)
[Chorus]
This is the best kind of night
Tailgate throne and the stars on high
Cold beer raised, all the worries outta sight
Pretty little thing in my passenger side
Got my crew, got my pride
Chrome, smoke, steel, and a wild-eyed smile
If you wanna see what “livin’” looks like
Come get a taste of the best kind of night
[Outro]
Yeah, this is the best kind of night
Raise ’em up once more, hold ’em up high (hey!)
One last kiss in the pale moonlight
Then we burn off slow
Into the best kind of night (woo)
