"The Night Is Ours" lyrics

"The Night Is Ours"

Here's to you and a good night too
Have you heard from anybody, are they getting here soon?
The truck's loaded, and the fire is goin'
I open a cold one, and it sure is flowin'

It won't be long until the sun goes down

And it's forgotten lyrics, untuned guitars
Sitting around a campfire, somebody in your arms
Staying up way too late, under the good Lord's stars
Life is good, love is great, friends are there
And the night is ours

Hey man, tell that story again
The one we've heard nine times but we don't mind ten
A little later we can pick on a tune
Just a-singin' as loud as we want to the moon

It won't be long until the sun comes up

And it's forgotten lyrics, untuned guitars
Sitting around a campfire, somebody in your arms
Staying up way too late, under the good Lord's stars
Life is good, love is great, friends are there
And the night is ours

We may not get the chance again
You never know when the party ends

And it's forgotten lyrics, untuned guitars
Sitting around a campfire, somebody special in your arms
Staying up way too late, under the good Lord's stars
Life is good, love is great, friends are there
And the night is ours
Life is good, love is great, friends are there
And the night is ours
