[Verse 1]
Summer coming through the rolled down window
Tearin' down an almost two lane backroad
Freedom and fireflies in the air
The night's still young
Never gonna get old
Living for the day
Like there's no tomorrow
Follow the grooves
The tires in the grass
Stayin' on the gas like we're never coming back

[Chorus]
It's a Friday night
It's a small town, girl
Everything is right and we rule the world
Two twelves in the truck back beating
Buncha rock stars on the river banks singing
Whoa, whoa
Everything
(Whoa, whoa)
Everything we wanna be
We are, we are, we are tonight

[Verse 2]
Swingin' back and forth
Can't you feel the music?
Time stands still
And I don't wanna lose it
Her tan
Her touch
Her laugh
We're flying so high like we're never gonna crash

[Chorus]
It's a Friday night
It's a small town, girl
Everything is right and we rule the world
Two twelves in the truck back beating
Buncha rock stars on the river banks singing
Whoa, whoa
Everything
(Whoa, whoa)
Everything we wanna be
We are, we are, we are tonight

[Bridge]
We are tonight
We are tonight
Toes in the grass with our hands up high
Dreaming as big as the midnight sky
So untamed and we're so alive tonight

[Chorus]
It's a Friday night
It's a small town, girl
Everything is right and we rule the world
Two twelves in the truck back beating
Buncha rock stars on the river banks singing
Whoa, whoa
Everything
(Whoa, whoa)
Everything we wanna be
We are, we are, we are tonight
