Lyrics
When the lights go down
When you're stuck here in this town
With nowhere to go
So you escape through the radio


​And you worked all week
To barely make ends meet


​Well, I gotta a little cash burning holes in my pocket
Foot on the gas, taking off like a rocket


​So Come on, come on,
Baby, I'm buying
I got enough to last us all night and
You got the kiss that tastes like honey
And I got a little beer money
Tonight, Tonight
Baby, we're drinkin';
Lets wake the town that never stops sleeping
You got the kiss that tastes like honey
And I got a little beer money


We can dance in the dark
Blow the speakers out of this car
Light it up, burn it down
Until the morning rolls around


​In a field, where we can scream
Get away with almost anything
Yeah, every now and then you gotta raise a little hell
Hope we get lucky and stay out of jail


​So Come on, come on,
Baby, I'm buying
I got enough to last us all night and
You got the kiss that tastes like honey
And I got a little beer money
Tonight, Tonight
Baby, we're drinkin';
Lets wake the town that never stops sleeping
You got the kiss that tastes like honey
And I got a little beer money


So come on, come on
Yeah, come on, come on
