Jason Aldean - They Don't Know Lyrics






Lights Come On

You're a crack of dawn Monday morning
Coffee strong pouring everything you got
Into a paycheck Friday night
You're a power stroke diesel backhoe riding
King of beers 18-wheeler driving
Livin' life in-between the lines of clocking in and quittin' time
Then the 6-string circus comes to town
We hang them speakers over the crowd

When the lights come on and everybody's screamin'
Lighters in the sky yeah everybody's singin'
Every word to every song
To the girl they're takin' home tonight
When the lights come on and everybody's feelin'
A hallelujah high from the floor to the ceiling
Yeah the drink that we're drinking the smoke that we're smoking
The party we're throwin's goin' all night long
When the lights come on
When the lights come on

You're a little shy thing with a wild side on a night like this it just can't hide 'Cause it's dyin' to live it up so come on and raise your cup
If we talkin' 'bout memories yeah we gonna make 'em
Talkin' 'bout rules you know we gonna break 'em

When the lights come on and everybody's screamin'
Lighters in the sky yeah everybody's singin'
Every word to every song
To the girl they're takin' home tonight
When the lights come on and everybody's feelin'
A hallelujah high from the floor to the ceiling
Yeah the drink that we're drinking the smoke that we're smoking
The party we're throwin's goin' all night long
When the lights come on
When the lights come on

Yeah we all the same 'cause we thinkin' the same thing
We on the same page 'cause we sippin' the same drink
Here's a little something to thank y'all for showing up
Aldean and the boys about to blow it up

When the lights come on and everybody's screamin'
Lighters in the sky yeah everybody's singin'
Every word to every song
To the girl they're takin' home tonight
When the lights come on and everybody's feelin'
A hallelujah high from the floor to the ceiling
Yeah the drink that we're drinking the smoke that we're smoking
The party we're throwin's goin' all night long
When the lights come on
When the lights come on

Boy's blowin' it up
It's goin all night long
When the lights come on

A Little More Summertime

They're boarding up this water town
Ain't nobody hanging 'round
Another gray September day
Was I crazy to think she'd stay

If that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer
If those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet on the beach 'stead of going out with the tide
If that wind was a friend it'd still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her
She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I
Had a little more summertime

I brace myself against the cold
Let her memory take hold
Stirring that old fire up
As if I don't miss her enough

If that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer
If those blue water waves could've stayed at her feet on the beach 'stead of going out with the tide
If that wind was a friend it'd still be blowing in like a warm southern whisper on her
She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I
Had a little more summertime

Just a little more summertime

If that sun would've just hung up in that sky just a little bit yeah just a little bit longer
She might have stayed forever and never ever left these arms if only I
Had a little more summertime

This Plane Dont Go There

There's a moment I can see
I close my eyes from this window seat
It's you and me under a midnight sky
Leaning on your car in the parking lot
Wish I could go back to that spot
The second right before we said goodbye

But this plane don't go there
This plane can't take me back in time
I could go anywhere
But I can't go back to that night
If I could, I would, I swear
But this plane don't go there

I wish there were runway lights
Where they could land this thing tonight
You'd be right there waiting at the gate
And I would stop you just before
You're reaching for that drivers door
If yesterday could be today

But this plane don't go there
This plane can't take me back in time
I could go anywhere
But I can't go back to that night
If I could, I would, I swear
But this plane don't go there

She's down there somewhere
If I could go back there

But this plane don't go there
This plane can't take me back in time
I could go anywhere
But I can't go back to that night
If I could, I would, I swear
But this plane don't go there
No, this plane don't go there

Comin In Hot

I usually tell you take your time
Go 45, ease in your drive
I put it in park, come inside
While you get ready
We lay it back, we take it slow
We put the night on cruise control
Whatcha wanna do, where you wanna go
I don't care baby
Been fixin' fence, been runnin' roads
Missing you like crazy
Girl, when I come to town tonight
I'm comin' in hot

Already got your song on
When you climb in it'll be playin'
Been thinking 'bout you all week long
Oh baby don't keep me waiting
You've got about 45 minutes tops
'Fore I roll in there ready to rock
Comin' to get some of what you got
Girl I'm comin' in hot
I'm comin' in hot

Girl I already stopped by the store
Can in a koozie sittin' in your door
Cooler in the back if you want some more
No, I ain't playin
You'll love the spot that I picked out
Where the stars and the moon come shining down
Won't be anybody else around, look out
I'm comin' in hot

Already got your song on
When you climb in it'll be playin'
Been thinking 'bout you all week long
Oh baby don't keep me waiting
You've got about 45 minutes tops
'Fore I roll in there ready to rock
Comin' to get some of what you got
Girl I'm comin' in hot
I'm comin' in hot

Like a summer black top
Like a 30 ought shot
Like I'm runnin' from the cops
To get to you girl
Like these 35 tires
Just caught on fire
Baby ready or not
I'm comin' in hot

Already got your song on
When you climb in it'll be playin'
Been thinking 'bout you all week long
Oh baby don't keep me waiting
You've got about 45 minutes tops
'Fore I roll in there ready to rock
Comin' to get some of what you got
Girl I'm comin' in hot
I'm comin' in hot
I'm comin' in hot
Yeah I'm comin' in hot

First Time Again

The mention of your name
That's all it takes
My heart re-breaks
My whole world shakes
And it's flashback driveway pouring rain
Nothing I could do nothing I could say
To slow you down
And right now

It's like the first time watching you walk away
Begging baby please just stay
Feeling every second of the clock tick by
On an endless night
The first time seeing you with someone new
Dying inside trying to play it cool
It don't matter how long it's been
I'm always missing you
For the first time again

It could start with an old song
Feeling you come on
It could be at a party
Seeing everybody
And I'm right back wishing you were right back here
Wishing that missing you would just disappear
But it don't and it won't
And baby here I go

It's like the first time watching you walk away
Begging baby please just stay
Feeling every second of the clock tick by
On an endless night
The first time seeing you with someone new
Dying inside trying to play it cool
It don't matter how long it's been
I'm always missing you
For the first time again
Oh, for the first time again

It don't let up, it don't get better
Hell it just might last forever
But it all takes me back
It all takes me back

To the first time watching you walk away
Begging baby please just stay
Feeling every second of the clock tick by
On an endless night
The first time seeing you with someone new
Dying inside trying to play it cool
It don't matter how long it's been
I'm always missing you
For the first time again
I'm always missing you
For the first time again
For the first time again

Bad

When you're good, girl you're good
Doing every little thing exactly like you should
So sweet, with your angel eyes just killin' me
On the porch, blue sky
Yeah you hold my hand say you want to take a Sunday drive
It's all good, when you're good

But when you're bad
And you're lookin' at me just like that
Reach up and you take my hat and you turn it around
Steal my drink and you shoot it on down
When you're wild, child, flashin' that come here smile
Spinnin' in your little red dress
Show a little too much
When you dance like that
Sayin' look don't touch
I never know what I'll get when we get together
When you're good, you're good
But when you're bad, you're better

When you're good, girl you're good
When you're countin' the stars in the sky layin' back
On the hood, talkin' 'bout
How you want to stay here 'til the moon goes out
With your head, on my chest
One innocent little kiss
Aw it's so good, so good, when you're good

When you're bad
And you're lookin' at me just like that
Reach up and you take my hat and you turn it around
Steal my drink and you shoot it on down
When you're wild, child, flashin' that come here smile
Spinnin' in your little red dress
Show a little too much
When you dance like that
Sayin' look don't touch
I never know what I'll get when we get together
When you're good, you're good
But when you're bad, you're better

Yeah I love every side of you
All the wrong and the right of you
All the day and the nighttime too
But you're the best I've ever had

When you're bad
And you're lookin' at me just like that
Reach up and you take my hat and you turn it around
Steal my drink and you shoot it on down
When you're wild, child, flashin' that come here smile
Spinnin' in your little red dress
Show a little too much
When you dance like that
Sayin' look don't touch
I never know what I'll get when we get together
When you're good, you're good

They Dont Know

They call us a two lane just passing by slow down town
Yeah they say what's there to do when you ain't got nothin' around
Just a few street lights, speed limit signs that all say 25
But those folks ain't lived in our lives

They ain't seen the blood sweat and tears it took to live their dreams
When everything's on the line
Ain't just another field, just another farm
No, it's the ground we grew up on
They think it's a middle of nowhere place where we take it slow
Aw but they don't know

All they see is tractors, barbwire and tall green grass
They don't see the years spent working, busting their ass
How they pray for rain
They don't know a thing
About what it takes
Livin' this way

They ain't seen the blood sweat and tears it took to live their dreams
When everything's on the line
Ain't just another field, just another farm
No, it's the ground we grew up on
They think it's a middle of nowhere place where we take it slow
Aw but they don't know
No, they don't know

They call us a two lane just passing by slow down town
Yeah they say what's there to do when you ain't got nothin' around

They ain't seen the blood sweat and tears it took to live their dreams
When everything's on the line
Ain't just another field, just another farm
No, it's the ground we grew up on
They think it's a middle of nowhere place where we take it slow

One We Wont Forget

Got the visor down drivin' into the sunset
Ain't come up on your dirt road turn yet
This Chevrolet is 5 away
Just enough time to burn half a cigarette
Can't wait to see what's waitin' on me
Behind that screen door I bet it'll be
Somethin' I can't take my eyes off
Somethin' you can't wait to show off
Baby, this ain't no lay low kinda night I'm talkin' about
When you get everything just the way you like it
Come walkin' out we

Get these wheels rollin' down the road
Find us a couple cold beers to hold
Let that moonlight kiss your skin
Like I'm about to do again and again
Don't matter where we set the party down
Underneath the stars or the lights of town
In a car in a bar girl when this night ends
Let's make it one of the ones we won't forget

You been soakin' up that sunshine all day
Sendin' some hot little pictures my way
Soakin' wet gettin' in my head
Now you're in that dress and girl I can't wait to
Take you out, spin you around
Find somewhere to lay you down
But the first thing we gotta do right now is

Get these wheels rollin' down the road
Find us a couple cold beers to hold
Let that moonlight kiss your skin
Like I'm about to do again and again
Don't matter where we set the party down
Underneath the stars or the lights of town
In a car in a bar girl when this night ends
Let's make it one of the ones we won't forget

Baby, this ain't no lay low kinda night I'm talkin' about
It's a missin' you all day kinda thing gotta make every second count when we

Get these wheels rollin' down the road
Find us a couple cold beers to hold
Let that moonlight kiss your skin
Like I'm about to do again and again
Don't matter where we set the party down
Underneath the stars or the lights of town
In a car in a bar girl when this night ends
Let's make it one of the ones we won't forget
Yeah, one we won't forget

Whiskeyd Up

I can twist the top off a twelve-pack of longnecks
Get my redneck on baby all night long with the boys
And never even think about you
I can be sittin' with someone new at a table for two
Buzzin' on a bottle of wine and your memory
Ain't messin' up my good time
But when I get

Whiskey'd up, that wantin' you again
Starts kickin' back in and I'm late night calling you up
My heart starts hurtin' when that bourbon starts burning
And I can't help but touch that stuff
It's just like you all warm and smooth
Even though I know that you don't miss me
It's like you're here with me
When I get whiskey'd up

Every sip I take I can taste your kiss
Feel the fire of your fingertips on my skin
I guess that's why every now and then I get

Whiskey'd up, that wantin' you again
Starts kickin' back in and I'm late night calling you up
My heart starts hurtin' when that bourbon starts burning
And I can't help but touch that stuff
It's just like you all warm and smooth
Even though I know that you don't miss me
It's like you're here with me
When I get whiskey'd up

It's a straight shot back to me and you
Yeah when I pour one up
I know just what I'm getting into
When I get

Whiskey'd up, that wantin' you again
Starts kickin' back in and I'm late night calling you up
My heart starts hurtin' when that bourbon starts burning
And I can't help but touch that stuff
It's just like you all warm and smooth
Even though I know that you don't miss me
It's like you're here with me
When I get whiskey'd up

When I'm all whiskey'd up

In Case You Dont Remember

In case you don't remember
I left a picture of us on the hood of your truck from that spring break
We were young and a little bit crazy enough to just think
We were gonna be something
Yeah weren't we something
A little bit burned a little bit buzzed didn't feel it
Still got the hat that you wore flipped back I wear it
Yeah I swear it

There was magic in the air it was everywhere that we touched down
The carnival ride and the high we were on as it went around
It was us against the world and you swore girl that we'd never surrender
But I still can't forget you girl
In case you don't remember

I still got the key to the room that we never slept in
Yeah the love we made you let it fade away well I kept it
And I don't regret it

There was magic in the air it was everywhere that we touched down
The carnival ride and the high we were on as it went around
It was us against the world and you swore girl that we'd never surrender
But I still can't forget you girl
In case you don't remember

The last time we kissed
The taste of my lips
The way we couldn't say goodbye

There was magic in the air it was everywhere that we touched down
The carnival ride and the high we were on as it went around
There was something in the way that you swore girl
That we'd never surrender but I still can't forget you girl
No I won't ever forget you girl
In case you don't remember

I left a picture of us on the hood of your truck from that spring break

All Out Of Beer

If you'd a got here 'fore my buzz kicked in
I'd a told you where to go, I'd a never let you in
Crashed out on the couch waitin' on that sun to come up
I'd probably still be hating on you
Saying I'm just glad it's over, actin' like that was the truth
I'd still have my walls, girl, I wouldn't care at all

So why you gotta wait until I'm gone to come around
When I ain't got no fight left I got no way out
When I'm 12 in, helpless
The only time you show up here is when you're lonely
And I'm all out of beer

I wish that you'd go find somebody new
And I wish I had it in me, to just have one or two
I wish I could draw a line, stick to it just one time
But I'm drunk tonight, so never mind

So why you gotta wait until I'm gone to come around
When I ain't got no fight left I got no way out
When I'm 12 in, helpless
The only time you show up here is when you're lonely
And I'm all out of beer

You got me where you want me girl, no I can't stand it
Looks like tonight's gonna go just the way you planned it

So why you gotta wait until I'm gone to come around
When I ain't got no fight left I got no way out
When I'm 12 in, helpless
The only time you show up here
Is when I'm 12 in, helpless
Girl you know I'm gonna give in
When you're lonely
And I'm all out of beer
When you're lonely
And I'm all out of beer

Any Ol Barstool

I guess you heard I was pedal to the metal on a downhill slide
Girl, you know those rumors get to flyin' in a town this size
No, I didn't feel a thing when you threw that ring and slammed the door
If you wanna know the truth you gotta go straight to the source

Ask any ol' barstool in this town
Ask my new found party crowd
Sure I take more Jack in my coke now
A little more high in my smoke now
Sure I stay 'til they're all long gone
And I take the long way home
But I ain't sittin' 'round
Tryin' to drown the thought of you
Ask any ol' barstool

I can finally stretch out in our king size bed if I make it that far
But fillin' in all these blanks you left isn't all that hard
No, I ain't wonderin' where you been or who you been with
I guess you didn't hurt me half as bad as you think you did

Ask any ol' barstool in this town
Ask my new found party crowd
Sure I take more Jack in my coke now
A little more high in my smoke now
Sure I stay 'til they're all long gone
And I take the long way home
But I ain't sittin' 'round
Tryin' to drown the thought of you
Ask any ol' barstool

Yeah, you think I'm down and out, hidin' out, hell-bent crazy
But that ain't me, baby

Ask any ol' barstool in this town
Ask my new found party crowd
Sure I take more Jack in my coke now
But I'm a long way from broke down
Sure I stay 'til they're all long gone
And I take the long way home
But I ain't sittin' 'round
Tryin' to drown the thought of you

The Way A Night Should Feel

Do you remember when we snuck out of the house at the stroke of midnight
I was waitin' 'round the block
'Cause your daddy would have killed me if he'd a seen me
You jumped in my ride we made a beeline out of town
And I drove so fast, yeah I drove so fast

We were rollin' down an open road
With the top laid back and the stars all shining
Headed down to Mexico you were kissing my neck yeah you had me flying
Rockin' to the radio, you in that short crop tank top dressed to kill
One hand on you, one on the wheel
Yeah that's the way a night should feel
Yeah that's the way a night should feel

That was such a long time ago, yeah I'll never know how we made it
You're still that same wild child and I don't take your love for granted
So let's jump in my ride
Make a beeline out of town
And do it all again
Yeah like back when

We were rollin' down an open road
With the top laid back and the stars all shining
Headed down to Mexico, you were kissing my neck, yeah you had me flying
Rockin' to the radio, you in that short crop tank top dressed to kill
One hand on you, one on the wheel
Yeah that's the way a night should feel
The way a night should feel

When you're all about me and I'm all about you
Baby right now all I want to do

Let's go rollin' down an open road
With the top laid back and the stars all shining
Headed down to Mexico, keep kissing my neck 'cause it keeps me flying
Rockin' to the radio, you in that short crop tank top dressed to kill
One hand on you, one on the wheel
Yeah that's the way a night should feel
Yeah that's the way a night should feel

Yeah, that's the way a night should feel

Reason To Love L.A.

I'm about as small town as you can get
I'm talkin two lanes one cop
Plowed up fields catching red sunsets
We get nervous when the rain stops
Never had a reason to leave this place
Never had a reason to get away

The wheels just touched down in California
Man I don't even like to fly
I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water
Chrome aviators on her eyes

I never had a reason to get away
I never had a reason to see this place
She gave me a reason to love L.A

She said she had to be where that sun dropped down
I'm talkin fast lane goodbye
She'd chase it all the way till that road ran out
And parked it underneath the pink sky
I wanna hear those waves come crashing in
I wanna feel that Santa Ana wind
I wanna go everywhere she's been, hold her again

The wheels just touched down in California
Man I don't even like to fly
I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water
Chrome aviators on her eyes

I never had a reason to get away
I never had a reason to see this place...

The wheels just touched down in California
Man I don't even like to fly
I just gotta see her with the sun shining on her in the water
Chrome aviators on her eyes

I never had a reason to get away
I never had a reason to see this place

When The Lights Go Out

I gotta get to you baby, I gotta get to you now
Without you I'm going crazy, without you girl I'm going wild
The only thing that I wanna do is fall into you

Baby, when the lights go out
I wanna hear that want you sound
On your lips when I lay you down (down down down)
I wanna love you 'til there's nothing left
All night until the sky turns red
Do everything that we ain't done yet
But we been thinkin' about
Baby, when the lights go out
Baby, when the lights go out

A day can feel like forever, baby when you're not around
Yeah, when we ain't together, you're all I dream about
I'm turning corners I'm driving, over to your house

Baby, when the lights go out
I wanna hear that want you sound
On your lips when I lay you down (down down down)
I wanna love you 'til there's nothing left
All night until the sky turns red
Do everything that we ain't done yet
But we been thinkin' about
Baby, when the lights go out

The only thing that I wanna do, is fall into you
Baby, when the lights go out

Baby when the lights go out
