theres a dirt road out where the blacktop ends
down past where the river bends
turn left when you see the barn,
thats eddie's farm
theres beer kegs and F-150's,
country girls lookin' pretty
good old boys gettin good and loud
its a rowdy crowd

but it ain't a party,
we ain't set the scene,
big joe walks over to the brush pile,
with a can of kerosene

and we light it up
tailgates down as a little brown jug,
we're passing around,
fillin' little red cups,
its powerful stuff
out in the sticks,
we ain't shy,
gonna set it off like the fourth of july
all week long's still a slow fuse burnin
but tonight were gonna light it up

till friday we're slazed to the same old grime,
but today we can all unwind,
hey, everybody's feelin' fine,
in the firelight
theres a red head lookin pretty smokin'
hot in a red and white poka dot dress,
man she sure looks fun
oh, here she comes!

lord i'd love to have her
teach me a thing or two
that girl shes a little firecracker
how bout me and you

light it up
tailgates down as a little brown jug,
were passing around,
fillin' litle red cups,
its powerful stuff
out in the sticks,
we ain't shy,
gonna set it off like the fourth of july
all week long's been a slow fuse burnin
but tonight were gonna light it up

light it up
tailgates down
as a little brown jug,
we're passing around,
fillin' litle red cups
its powerful stuff
out in the sticks,
we ain't shy,
gonna set it off like the fourth of july
all week long's been a slow fuse burnin
but tonight were gonna light it up

yeah we gonna light it up
its like a slow fuse burnin
oh light it up
(oh-oh-oh)
