[Verse 1]
Seventeen, we owned those streets
Parking lot, that was our spot
That’s where we’d always meet
And we’d roll on out in a pickup truck parade
Stake our claim with a fire in a field in the middle of Nowhere, USA
We’d light the midnight up

[Chorus]
We'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
We thought we made the world go ‘round
Nothin’ but a bunch of time to kill
Set up on the big hill
Make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this town

[Verse 2]
All the girls next door
They’d meet us out there
They couldn’t wait to get away
And come and let down their hair
We were rough around the edges
They were sweet as they could be
They were way too good
But they still let us steal a little kiss before they’d leave
Guess they thought we were cool because

[Chorus]
We'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
Yeah, we thought we made the world go ‘round
Drop it down in four-wheel
Set up on a big hill
And make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this town

[Bridge]
From crazy kids to dirt road kings
Oh, we didn’t know nothin'
But we knew everything

[Chorus]
We'd drive too fast
We'd get too loud
We thought we made the world go ‘round
Nothin’ but a bunch of time to kill
Set up on the big hill
Make a toast, drink it down
Say, yeah man, we run this town

[Outro]
High five and look around
Damn right, we run this town
Man, I love this town
Come on

Thomas Luther “Luke” Bryan was born July 17, 1976 in Leesburg, Georgia, to Tommy and LeClaire Watkins Bryan. His parents also raised him in Leesburg. At age 14, his parents bought him his first guitar, and after learning to play it, he joined various local bands and began to play in local clubs. After graduating Lee County High School, Bryan planned to move to Nashville, Tennessee; however, this move was delayed, due to the death of his brother, Chris, in a car accident, on the same day he planned to leave. Luke attended Georgia Southern University, and is a member of the Eta Zeta chapter of the Sigma Chi Fraternity. After graduation Luke went to work for his dad, despite everyone encouraging him to move to Tennessee. His dad encouraged him to relocate and he arrived in Nashville in 2001, signing a record deal only two months later. The 6'01/2" singer-songwriter married Caroline Boyer on December 8, 2006. The couple have two sons. Thomas “Bo” Boyer Bryan was born March 18, 2008 and Tatum “Tate” Christopher Bryan was born August 11, 2010. Luke’s nephew Tilden “Til” Cheshire also lives with the Bryan’s, after his mother (Luke’s older sister, Kelly) died in 2007 and his father died in 2014. Among the songs Luke is known for are “Drunk on You” and “Someone Else Calling You Baby”.
