Tell ‘Em About Tonight

[Verse 1]

Someday, these lights are gonna fade

Some other good old boy'll be on this stage

And the only place you might see my name

Is on a t-shirt in a closet, taking up space

Yeah, someday, they won't want to turn me up

And them records on the walls will start to rust

When what I never thought I'd do turns into what I've done

And I get to reminiscing with my time in the sun

[Chorus]

'Bout the boys in the back with the beers up high

And the girls in the front row singing every line

I'm gon' think about them lighters way up in the sky

And how we rode that rocket as far as it could fly

Yeah, when somebody someday, way on down the line

Says, "Tell me something you're proud of when you think about your life"

I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout my kids, gon' tell 'em 'bout my wife

And you damn right, I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout tonight

[Verse 2]

I'll think about guitars roarin' out the speakers

Cowboy boots stompin' in the bleachers

And that feeling in the air, lighting that live wire

Dreamers dancing in the dark with their hearts on fire

[Chorus]

And the boys in the back with the beers up high

And the girls in the front row singing every line

I'm gon' think about them lighters way up in the sky

And how we rode that rocket as far as it could fly

Yeah, when somebody someday, way on down the line

Says, "Tell me something you're proud of when you think about your life"

I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout my kids, gon' tell 'em 'bout my wife

And you damn right, I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout tonight

[Bridge]

Here's to the boys in the back with beers up high

And the girls in the front row singing every line

I'm gon' think about them lighters way up in the sky

And how we rode that rocket as far as it could fly

[Chorus]

Hell, when somebody someday, way on down the line

Says, "Tell me something you're proud of when you think about your life"

I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout my kids, gon' tell 'em 'bout my wife

And you damn right, I'm gon' tell 'em 'bout tonight

[Outro]

Tell 'em 'bout tonight

Tell 'em 'bout tonight

Tell 'em 'bout tonight
