[Verse 1]
Two kids, one old Corolla
A mixtape you made for me
Blackjack and a Coca-Cola
Parked way back 'neath the trees
You were singing "Yellow Ledbetter" (Hey)
And you knew every damn line
I was thinking it doesn't get better (Hey)
Than leaned back seats under pines

[Chorus]
In the car that night, Saturday in July, we had the radio dialed
And you were teeing them up in the car that night
Two beautiful eyes, you weren't even trying
I was falling in love
When the headlights met the sunrise
It was so right, oh, in the car that night
We were on fire, couldn't get higher
I was yours, you were mine in the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
In the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
Oh, in the car that night

[Verse 2]
Tank top tan on your shoulder (Hey)
It felt warm there on my lips
Your Levi's on the floorboard (Hey)
And a come-and-love-me kiss

[Chorus]
In the car that night, Saturday in July, we had the radio dialed
And you were teeing them up in the car that night
Two beautiful eyes, you weren't even trying
I was falling in love
When the headlights met the sunrise
It was so right, oh, in the car that night
We were on fire, couldn't get higher
I was yours, you were mine in the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
In the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
In the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh)

[Refrain]
You were singing "Yellow Ledbetter"
And you knew every damn line
I was thinking it doesn't get better
Than leaned back seats under pines

[Chorus]
In the car that night, Saturday in July, we had the radio dialed
And you were teeing them up in the car that night
Two beautiful eyes, you weren't even trying
I was falling in love
When the headlights met the sunrise
It was so right, oh, in the car that night
We were on fire, couldn't get higher
I was yours, you were mine in the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
In the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
Oh, in the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
In the car that night (Oh-oh-oh)
Oh, in the car that night

[Outro]
In the car that night

Chase Rice

Country music maverick Chase Rice has become one of country music’s most exciting figures since arriving in Nashville, building a loyal fan base across the country through his energetic live shows and gaining the attention of music critics and industry professionals alike with his edgy, eclectic sound. The Tar Heel State native recently released his first taste of new music with “Lonely If You Are,” now available on all digital platforms and climbing the charts at Country radio. The song follows his sophomore album, Lambs & Lions, released with Broken Bow Records in 2017 and featuring two-week chart-topper “Eyes On You” – Rice’s first No. 1 as an artist and the most-streamed song of his career with more than 200 million streams and counting. Lambs & Lions followed Ignite the Night, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums and No. 3 on the all-genre chart, producing a pair of Top 5 hits; the Platinum-certified “Ready Set Roll” and “Gonna Wanna Tonight.” After supporting Kenny Chesney’s The Big Revival Tour, Rice has consistently sold out 2,500-3,000 seat venues on his own headlining tours, plus served as direct support on the Luke Bryan Farm Tour 2018. His current headlining AM/PM Tour runs through the rest of 2019 before his The Pint of Anything Tour hits Europe in early 2020.
