Upchurch - Tonight lyrics

[Upchurch - Tonight lyrics]

I'm gonna set this city on fire tonight
Tonight gonna walk down Broadway
Watch the flames and the neon lights
(neon lights) tonight, tonight, oh tonight

I set the city to flames and
Watch the purple and blues
Captivate the little bars
Playin' hillbilly tunes
Watch the tourists coastin' in slow
Motion happy with the motion
'Cause they think they'll get to
See somebody famous in person
Look, I was born in Nashville
My experience is different to me
It's nothin' but a pit of
Snakes embedded with sickness
'Cause I can't even be accepted in
The town I was raised in
The voice of the radio, or face of a cool kid

I'm gonna set this city on fire tonight
Tonight gonna walk down Broadway
Watch the flames and the neon lights
(neon lights) tonight, tonight, oh tonight

In Music City I don't get
Tipsy off of the liquor
I don't hit up Tin Roof to
See what's poppin' on the weekend
I sit in Centennial Park and watch
The world rotate around me
And listen to people whisper how
They think that I'm clownin'
So go ahead and keep sleepin' on
The roots that I rooted here
I was born in Baptist Hospital back in 1991
And I ain't gotta wear boots
To prove where I'm from
But you can cross the city limit's
Hear the roarin' of trucks
When the world turns green I
Can still see the skyline
This hometown boy don't ever wanna be signed
'Cause we live with their talkin' and
When we talk of this trash
Attach white to the label
See how businessmen act
And they don't want shit from the heart
They want them dollars for their pockets
So if I start a wild fire there
Ain't not promise I could stop it
So when the last guitar is smashed
And the last legend dies
Won't you look up the history of the 615

I'm gonna set this city on fire tonight
Tonight gonna walk down Broadway
Watch the flames and the neon lights
(neon lights) tonight, tonight, oh tonight
I'm gonna set this city on fire tonight
Tonight gonna walk down Broadway
Watch the flames and the neon lights
(neon lights) tonight, tonight, oh tonight

Tonight, tonight, oh tonight
(Tonight, oh tonight)
Tonight, tonight, oh tonight
