Uncle Brent ...

Hey Tim,
This song has a really good feel and the “Light’em Up” yell has a big concert sound so it will be a really fun song in a LIVE setting!  Play a little more with the guitar mix on the solo ... Make the tone fatter and bring it forward.
Thanks, Brent

Light ‘Em Up

Written by Tim Wilson


It’s been a long week an even longer day
The clocks laughing at me just tick ticking away
Man all I want is my damn paycheck
Cause I’m living just to die and I’m dying just to live
I need some of that 7 and crown
Drop them tailgates down and pump the music up loud

And light em up
Lit like a bon fire
A little spark
Little shot in the dark
Lets kick this weekend off right
And light em up
Yea its Friday night
Just a mile down the road there ain’t no 5-0
So if you’re ready for a good time
Then light em up

Don’t give me honey dos, don’t need no honey don’ts
No fancy diamond ring that knot just ain’t my thing
Gonna buy a little boat get lost somewhere out the sea
Don’t care how far we float as long as you keep pouring me
Some more of that 7 and crown
Drop that anchor down my baby loves to fool around

And light em up
Lit like a bon fire
A little spark
Little shot in the dark
Lets kick this weekend off right
And light em up
Yea its Friday night
Just a mile down the road there ain’t no 5-0
So if you’re ready for a good time
Then light em up

Drop them tailgates down and pump the music up loud

And light em up
Lit like a bon fire
A little spark
Little shot in the dark
Lets kick this weekend off right
And light em up
Yea its Friday night
Just a mile down the road there ain’t no 5-0
So if you’re ready for a good time
Then light em up
