[Verse 1]
Billy came from a long line of shadetree mechanics
Arm like a rocket taking off left-handed
Never knew his mama, but he kept her bandana
[Verse 2]
Spiral through the tire, he was always playing
Round bale backstop even in the rain and
Every September he would wake up saying
[Chorus]
Turn on the lights
Turn on the lights
Light me up like a lone star on Friday night
Fourth and one
Come on, let me run
I been waiting for this moment for all my life
So turn on the lights
[Verse 3]
There ain't much to do in a water tower town
'Cept haul a little hay and wonder how to get out
And dream about the fall when the sun goes down
[Chorus]
Turn on the lights
Turn on the lights
Light me up like a lone star on Friday night
Fourth and one
Come on, let me run
I been waiting for this moment for all my life
So turn on the lights
[Bridge]
Every now and then, I see a glow in the distance
Barely hear the band, but I hometown miss it
I think about Billy, hope he big-time did it
[Chorus]
Turn on the lights (Turn on the lights)
Turn on the lights
Light me up like a lone star on Friday night
Fourth and one (Yeah, turn on the lights)
Come on, let me run (Come on, let me run)
I been waiting for this moment for all my life
So turn on the lights
[Outro]
(Turn on the lights)
Turn on the lights
Turn on the lights
