Lyrics

I got sunburned waiting outside Franklin line Spent forty bucks on tacos and I still feel fine There’s a guy on Sixth Street Dressed like Darth Maul Playing Blink-182 on a ukulele y’all And everybody swears they’re in a startup band, Drinkin’ Lone Star tall boys by Lady Bird again It’s 102 in the shade, but we still pretend “This heat’s not THAT bad” to all our outta-town friends And every night feels like a movie scene With dive bar queens and busted skinny jeans Hey! Keep Austin loud tonight Play that pop punk dynamite We’ll scream those songs ‘til sunrise hits the sky, From Riverside to I-35 And everybody’s chasing dreams With tattoo sleeves and trampoline schemes Yeah life gets weird but that’s alright Cause Austin, Texas saved my life Met a girl at Barton Springs at half past two She said “I moved here last week, now I do tattoos” She drives a vintage Jeep that barely starts But somehow still has “Keep Austin Weird” on every part ACL weekends and east side bars Food truck dates underneath the stars And every dude with an acoustic guitar Still thinks he’s gonna be the next big star And somehow every heartbreak feels okay When there’s queso and live music every day Hey! Keep Austin loud tonight Play that pop punk dynamite We’ll scream those songs ‘til sunrise hits the sky, From Riverside to I-35 And everybody’s chasing dreams With rooftop bars and nicotine Yeah life gets weird but that’s alright Cause Austin, Texas saved my life Long live the late nights Long live the neon signs Long live the girls in Docs And the punk rock dive bar lights Long live the mornings Hungover eating breakfast tacos Thinking maybe this town’s Exactly where we belong Hey! Keep Austin loud tonight Turn the speakers up all night We’ll sing these songs with strangers side by side, Like it’s 2005 And everybody’s still eighteen At Mohawk bars and house party scenes Yeah life gets weird but that’s alright Cause Austin, Texas feels alive
