Leave the Night On Lyrics

They roll the sidewalks in this town
All up after the sun goes down
They say nothin' good happens here
When midnight rolls around
But layin' down would be in vain
I can't sleep with you on my brain
I ain't anywhere close to tired
Your kiss has got me wired

Girl, you got the beat right, killin' in your Levis
High on your lovin's got me buzzin' like a streetlight
It's still early out in Cali, baby, don't you wanna rally again
We'll find a road with no name, lay back in the slow lane
The sky is dropping Jupiter around us like some old train
We'll be rolling down the windows, I bet you we're catchin' our second wind
We don't have to go home, we can Leave the Night On
We can leave the night on

Now all the stars are turnin' blue
Just kissed the clock 2:22
Baby, I know what you're wishin' for
I'm wishin' for it too
Now all the lights are flashin' gold
Nobody cares how fast we go
Our soundtrack's in the stereo
This DJ's on a roll

Girl, you got the beat right, killin' in your Levis
High on your lovin's got me buzzin' like a streetlight
It's still early out in Cali, baby, don't you wanna rally again
We'll find a road with no name, lay back in the slow lane
The sky is dropping Jupiter around us like some old train
We'll be rolling down the windows, I bet you we're catchin' our second wind
We don't have to go home, we can leave the night on
We can leave the night on

The sun'll steal the magic from us soon
So let's take one more trip around the moon

Girl, you got the beat right, killin' in your Levis
High on your lovin's got me buzzin' like a streetlight
It's still early out in Cali, baby, don't you wanna rally again
We'll find a road with no name, lay back in the slow lane
The sky is dropping Jupiter all around us like some old train
We'll be rolling down the windows, I bet you we're catchin' our second wind
We dont have to go home, we can leave the night on
We can leave the night on

Leave the Night On

Sam Hunt started out as a star football player at Middle Tennessee State University and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. After college he was briefly signed as a free agent with the Kansas City Chiefs before deciding to concentrate on a music career after co-penning Kenny Chesney's "Come Over," Billy Currington's "We Are Tonight" and Keith Urban's "Cop Car."

This song is the first single from Hunt's debut album after signing with MCA Universe in January 2014. "'Leave the Night On' is a song that sort of represents the album as a whole," he said. "I feel like it captures all of the elements in one song. As far as a song that could represent what the whole album is about, I think that's just a good choice."

The song made it into the history books by entering the Country Aircheck chart at No #36, the highest ever entry for a new artist on the tally.

The song's music video finds Hunt playing a fun-loving taxi driver. The singer also helped direct the clip alongside actor and cinematographer Brad Belander.

Montevallo is the name of a small town just south of Birmingham, Alabama. Hunt explained why he named his debut album after the little-known place. "I had never spent any time there, but went to school for several years in Birmingham and met a girl from Montevallo just as I was leaving to head to Nashville," he said. "Over the course of the next several years as I was on this journey musically, figuring out the songwriting thing and doing all the things that led up to this moment, I was writing songs that were inspired by the experiences I was living, and the girl from Montevallo had a lot to do with that and a lot of influence came from her and came from experiences in that town, came from other people in that town."

"It's just a word that when I see it or when I hear someone else say it, it has a whole new emotion attached to it, than when I first left Birmingham," Hunt added, "and that's the same emotion that I get when I read the track listing on the record."

Sam Hunt penned the tune with Josh Osborne and Shane McAnally in early 2013. "It was kind of an unassuming song," he told Billboard magazine. "I was excited because we wrote a cool song at the time and it stuck around as I continued to write more songs and started to work on an album."

"And then when I went into record the songs my producer Zach Crowell really took it to another place with the production," Hunt continued. "He spent a lot of time on it and we continued to build it as we went. The final product just turned out really cool. When we put it beside the rest of the songs for the record it just stood out as a good song that could really be a good introduction and also a good first single as far as being up tempo and covering a lot of the different elements that will be on the record in one song."

So what's happening in this song? Sam Hunt explained: "It's a song about a guy who's with a girl, and they've had a good evening and they're creeping up on the normal time to go separate ways, but neither of them want to end the night yet. So, they continue their adventure on into the late hours of the night."

This song climbed to the top of the country chart on November 15, 2014. Hunt's Montevallo album bowed at #1 on Top Country Albums the same week. In doing so, the singer became just the second solo male to reach the summit of both lists with a debut release in the SoundScan-era (since 1991). Billy Ray Cyrus previously ruled the country chart with his debut single "Achy Breaky Heart" and Top Country Albums with his rookie long player Some Gave All on June 6, 1992.

Hunt is the one who came up with the line "leave the night on without me." When he told Shane McAnally about it, McAnally replied, "I can't believe you would offer that hook to somebody else." He told Rolling Stone Country: "I was being funny but I was mad. He said, 'No, no I haven't written it; I just have an idea.' And I was like, 'Oh my God, thank you because I think that's the best lyric I've ever heard.' So we got with Josh Osborne and that was just a typical writing day. We were hashing it out and trying to find the phrasing and it went through some different phases, but that song is pretty close to the way it was written the day we wrote it."

Speakers Lyrics

I softly kiss your neck, and slowly whisper
You breathe in 'cause it feels cold where my lips were
T-shirt for a pillow, music up real low, creeping through the window
I can feel the bass line in the bed liner, and your heart on mine,
Tryin' to jump up out of your chest.

Baby you're now on fire, girl you're on fire
Out in the dark, wrapped up in the stars
So right, girl I'm so high
You and me, wild and free
Way out in the woods nobody for miles
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the Speakers on
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the speakers on

The moonlight's tracing those tree tops across your face
There's a feeling in your eyes the shadows can't erase
The cool wind around us is breezing around us
Following my fingers through your hair
The engine is idling and girl this heat lightning is flashing
Pictures of you and burning them in my head

And I'm on fire, girl you're on fire
Out in the dark, wrapped up in the stars
So right, girl I'm so high
You and me, wild and free
Way out in the woods nobody for miles
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the speakers on
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the speakers on

I'm tuned in to ya, something's on your mind ain't it?
Go on and tell me baby, don't act like you can't say it
I know your body language, you ain't gotta translate it
Let it talk to me, till I can't take it
Your lips, your hair, your smile, your touch, your kiss, your stare
Your vibe's too much
It lights me up, you got me set
I'm way too gone, so baby let your eyes close
Say my name and watch me goin' up in flames

Girl I'm on fire, girl you're on fire
Out in the dark, where the wild things are
So right, girl I'm so high
You and me, wild and free
Way out in the woods parked under the pines
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the speakers on
Love in the back of the truck with the tailgate down
Just us and the speakers on

Speakers Song Chart

Sam Hunt closes his Montavello album with this take on making love in the back of a truck. Penned by the singer with Kylie Sackley and Brandon Hood, the track originally featured on the singer's 2013 acoustic mixtape Between the Pines.

The tracks on Montavello are country songs sprinkled with other genres such as R&B, pop and rap. Radio.com commented to Hunt that this cut sounds like a Drake song. "I never listened to a lot of Drake but I imagine that Drake and I are influenced by a lot of the same people," Hunt responded. "There was definitely a sound that was heard throughout '90s R&B. I think that influenced a lot of what I'm doing. I remember the first time I listened to Usher. I was blown away by that vibe and I think that stuck with me since then."
