"Lighten Up" lyrics

"Lighten Up"

There's a roadside bar with a neon sign
When the sun goes down we'll be rollin' up
About the time to lightin' up (Lightin' up)
To kick your foot on the right foot
Southpaw pass it around
Gonna keep the windows up 'cause we'll be lightin' up
Brotha Jimbo ain't late night toker
Never been one to roll with the holly rollers
Just a-puts a little somethin' in his cup
When he wants to lightin' up
Lightin' up

Maybe everybody could lighten up
When the goin' gets a little tough
Give a little love
And put your lighters in the air then light 'em up
Lately everybody's done had enough
We gotta get it back to the good stuff
Just to lit it up
And when the world goes dark we'll be lightin' up

Back porch pickin' from my six string
Sippin' from a fill it up cup, uh
They ain't gonna turn it down, nah
Only gonna crank it up, crank it up (Lightin' up)
Rednecker hippers and the girls on my cities all gettin' along
Long hairs and a country song

Maybe everybody could lighten up
When the goin' gets a little tough
Give a little love
And put your lighters in the air then light 'em up
Lately everybody's done had enough
We gotta get it back to the good stuff
Just to lit it up
And when the world goes dark we'll be lightin' up

Yeah, maybe everybody could lighten up
When the goin' gets a little tough
Give a little love
And put your lighters in the air then light 'em up
Lately everybody's done had enough
We gotta get it back to the good stuff
Just to lit it up
When the world goes dark we'll be lightin' up
Lightin' up, lightin' up
