Couple boys clock out about 5:35
Tryna put a little hammer in their head
Standing in the liquor store, staring at a fifth
But they picked up a handle instead
Hell right (Hell right?)
Hell right (Okay)

Couple girls with their boots on got their bluetooth on
T-shirts sayin “Go Sooners”
Then the girl from the small town took off the “Old Town”
Put on a little Hank Jr. (Thank God)
Hell right
She got all her rowdy friends comin’ over tonight
CHORUS:
Bm G
Hell right, hell right
D
Everybody’s throwin’ down on a Friday night
Bm G
Somewhere in America
D
There’s a bottle to burn and a fire to light
Bm G
And you ain’t done nothin’ if you did it half way
D
If you gonna raise hell, then you better damn raise
Bm G D
Hell right, Hell right, Hell right

There’s a guitar on the ground that was making some sound
‘Til somebody pulled a hillbilly slip
Now there’s fog on the window,
She never would’ve kissed him
If he didn’t play a lick like this
Dm7
Hell right

Now it’s 7am,
Damn if there ain’t an empty handle on a square hay bell
Everybody’s passed out drunk, but when they wake up
They’re all gonna hurt like hell right
