This song was inspired by someone challenging me to write a song about football. After some thought, I started it and it kind of wrote itself. This song is dedicated to all Texas HS football players and coaches with a special shout out to the 1A Bremond, Texas Tiger Football team and their coaches.
Lyrics
Friday Night Lights
Verse 1
Two a days are over We scrimmaged two teams
Weathers hot but we'll still get by
Lost a few starters We do every year
No problem cause these boys will fly
That six foot new junior well he's sure a mover
Ran back a kick 60 yards
And the lines getting salty The D's looking stout
Those big boys can sure dish it out
Chorus
Now those Friday night lights oh they still burn so bright
In Texas In Fall Every Year
Win or lose we'll be there All the town comes to cheer
Under bright white Friday night lites
Bridge
The days have grown colder the seasons near gone
We won most but we lost a few
Non district don't matter as much as it could
We're going to playoffs for sure
Verse 3
With two teams left standing They both take the field
A ring and a dream in their hearts
And momma and daddy and sis in the stands
Are praying that their boys win out
Repeat chorus
