Cheers from a high school football game

on an American Friday night

Chorus of the pledge of allegiance

As the red ones rewind the fight



Crowd roars

and the quarterback scores

Losing side gets quiet

You can almost hear the high beat

of an American Friday night



Hey yeah

the girls look pretty

man, they're good to go

boys try to shine like stars on the city

music on the radio

There ain't no place in the whole wide world

that can feel so right

Yeah yeah, an American Friday night



Good old boys

laughin', back slappin

on the other side of town

And they only leave behind a couple beauties besides

there ain't no worries now

They all rock ZZ top

as they make their rounds



Yeah that's how good it sounds

that's how good it sounds



Hey yeah

the girls look pretty

man, they're good to go

boys try to shine like stars on the city

music on the radio

There ain't no place in the whole wide world

that can feel so right

Yeah yeah, an American Friday night

Yeah yeah An American Friday night!



You wanna go to the movies

stay home and order dominoes

flip a coin and we'll choose

we can't loose



Hey yeah girl you look pretty

Girl I'm good to go

we're gonna shine like stars in the city

songs on the radio

there ain't no place in the world that can feel this right

yeah yeah an American Friday night

Oh yeah, yes an American Friday night

Oh yeah, an American Friday night
