Verse
Gravel road and a bent up fender
Radio hanging on to one station
Cutoff jeans and a porch light ember
Screen door slam like a starting gun
Sixteen cups on the tailgate table
Lightning bugs doing cartwheels through the yard
We got nowhere else we're able
And nothing but time in our two front pockets
Pre-Chorus
So what do you say we lose the clock
Let the gravel dust settle where we stop
Can you feel it building like a summer storm
Rising up till we can't hold on
Chorus
Hands up till sundown, boots kicking up the sand
Hearts loud as the thunder, sweat and gasoline hands
We're a bonfire burning slow, we're the last light in this town
Young and running wild, hands up till sundown
Verse
Cannonball off the old rope swing
Water so cold it steals your breathing
Peach juice dripping down your chin
Truck bed full of cousins and secrets
Count the stars before the fireflies find us
Somebody's brother strumming three chords wrong
We don't care if it's a little bit clumsy
Long as the night keeps rolling along
Pre-Chorus
So what do you say we lose the clock
Let the gravel dust settle where we stop
Can you feel it building like a summer storm
Rising up till we can't hold on
Chorus
Hands up till sundown, boots kicking up the sand
Hearts loud as the thunder, sweat and gasoline hands
We're a bonfire burning slow, we're the last light in this town
Young and running wild, hands up till sundown
Bridge
Someday we'll be gone from here
Chasing something further down the road
But tonight the whole sky's ours to keep
Every ember, every stone we throw
So hold this porch light, hold this song
Hold my hand till the crickets sing us home
Chorus
Hands up till sundown, boots kicking up the sand
Hearts loud as the thunder, sweat and gasoline hands
We're a bonfire burning slow, we're the last light in this town
Young and running wild, hands up till sundown
Hands up till sundown
