American Nights - The Night Game

He was 18 and wasted

Bedroom in the basement

Parents' house Tucson Arizona

What do you expect from a high school diploma

Working hours in the shoe store

Selling dimes out the backdoor

And he puts on his prom crown

Says to his mama I'm the king of this town

Won't you take me out

I hear the midnight streets are calling

You can hold me down

But like a bird I'm just free falling

Here's to these American nights

We're having the time of our lives

Living dreaming feeling never sleeping till we see the morning light

On these American nights

Neighborhood kid just back from the desert

Tattoo and a discharge letter

VA in the St John's 6 times a week

He still sleeps with his boots on

She skipped track up to Brooklyn with a dream and some dark skin

Graveyard at the rhino

This is the place where the stars shine you know

Won't you take me out

I hear the midnight streets are calling

You can hold me down

But like a bird I'm just free falling

Here's to these American nights

We're having the time of our lives

Living dreaming feeling never sleeping till we see the morning light

On these American nights

On these American nights

On these American nights

Sky's black in November

Nothing good lasts forever

Twelve gauge heart in a machine gun town

Whole life running you can't stop now

Here's to these American nights

We're having the time of our lives

Living on a feeling I got a feeling that it's gonna be alright

On these American nights

On these American nights

On these American nights

On these American nights

On these American nights
