Headlights Lyrics


Everybody knows when the summer gets hotter
Everybody goin' on down by the water, chillin'
Nothin' gets rocking 'til the clock says midnight
Catch a buzz on a honeysuckle moonlight

Shotguns, girlfriends, coolers full of cold cans

Follow those Headlights
Down a broken fence line
Take it to the riverside
Point 'em through the red dust
Keep it in the tire ruts
If you wanna find us
Wanna go all night, hell yeah that's right
Follow those headlights

Got a girl in a tee and cut-offs shakin'
Around here we call that summertime naked
Yeah, shake it
Got bottoms up boys, hats on backwards
Hittin' it hard, says to park them tractors

Got Hank up on 10, if you can't hear him
If you can't hear him

Follow those headlights
Down a broken fence line
Take it to the riverside
Point 'em through the red dust
Keep it in the tire ruts
If you wanna find us
Wanna go all night, hell yeah that's right
Follow those headlights

Follow those headlights, yeah

Follow those headlights
Down a broken fence line
Take it to the riverside
Point 'em through the red dust
Keep 'em in the tire ruts
If you wanna find us
Wanna go all night, hell yeah that's right
Follow those headlights
Follow those headlights, yeah

Headlights Song Chart
  • This rock-country cut was written by Bob DiPiero (Montgomery Gentry's "If You Ever Stop Loving Me"), Wendell Mobley (Randy Houser's "How Country Feels") and Tony Martin (Keith Urban's "You Look Good In My Shirt"). "A feel-good song with a really great beat," Troy Gentry commented to USA Today. "And it's got that Montgomery Gentry message of having a good time, laying back and looking for the weekend."
  • This song, along with the rest of the album, was produced by Michael Knox, who also has worked with Jason Aldean, Thomas Rhett and Trace Adkins. "He's great at finding songs for us," Gentry said. "He gets us, knows what we singing about, knows our sound. He's able to go out and find those kinds of songs."
  • Eddie Montgomery is the lead voice on the verses whilst Troy Gentry takes the lead on the chorus. Gentry admitted to Billboard magazine it's a familiar formula. "It has always worked for us, and it's a case of, 'If it's not broke, don't fix it.' It's just that unique style," he said. "When you hear them performed, you know it's a Montgomery Gentry song."

    "That's been a staple of what we've been about and what's worked for us. We're fortunate that Eddie and I are both able to take lead on these songs. We're kind of like ying and yang," Gentry added with a smile.
