Tonight

I'm gonna set this city on fire tonight, tonight Gonna walk down Broadway, watch the flames and the neon lights Tonight, tonight, oh tonight I set the city to flames and watch the purple and blues Captivate the little bars playing hillbilly tunes Watch the tours coasting 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 nothing 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 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 popping 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 clowning So go ahead and keep sleeping 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 limits, hear the roaring 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 talking 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 smashes 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 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 Tonight, tonight, oh tonight Tonight, tonight, oh tonight Tonight, tonight, oh tonight --- Tonight - Upchurch
