Lyrics
Friday night lights and the whole town's here Marching band horns got the bleachers shaking clear I'm in my number twelve with the tape on my wrist Down by seven in the third and I'm still on the list Coach says breathe, I say I'm already there Cold air in my lungs and a fire in my stare Mama in the stands with a sign she made at home I'm not playing for the score, I'm playing for my own Clock keeps ticking, hear the drum Every heartbeat says we come Scoreboard don't lie tonight Lift it up, hit the lights Run it back, run it back Whole town on the track Scoreboard don't lie tonight Hands up, hold it tight Never quit, never fade Hear that thunder that we made Fourth quarter coming and the crowd gets loud Stomping on the metal like a thunderstorm cloud Quarterback looks at me, we don't need a word Pass is in the air and it's the best thing I've ever heard Cut left, cut right, I'm a blur in the glow Defenders on my heels but they're moving slow Touchline in my sights and the stadium roars Open up the gates, I'm walking through the doors Clock keeps ticking, hear the drum Every heartbeat says we come Scoreboard don't lie tonight Lift it up, hit the lights Run it back, run it back Whole town on the track Scoreboard don't lie tonight Hands up, hold it tight Never quit, never fade Hear that thunder that we made Hands up, stomp, stomp Hands up, stomp, stomp Everybody on your feet Feel the whole place beat Scoreboard don't lie tonight Lift it up, hit the lights Run it back, run it back Whole town on the track Scoreboard don't lie tonight Hands up, hold it tight Never quit, never fade Hear that thunder that we made Scoreboard don't lie tonight Hear that thunder, hold it tight
