When it was announced that The Reklaws cut a new Thursday Night Football themed version of their latest hit, “Long Live the Night” (which will be the opening intro song for each Thursday Night Football game on CFL on TSN, by the way), I couldn’t wait to learn every word!

The song is SO catchy and if you have yet to learn the words, here are the lyrics for you so we can sing this song together all. summer. long!

VERSE 1

Red sky fading
Let’s do this right
What’ you’re drinkin’s
what I’m drinking
who’s got a light?
We ’bout to kickoff this’
9 to 5
From dusk til dawn
Man, it’s on

CFL
On TSN
Music’s playin’, yeah we’re swayin’, crank it to 10
These stars are falling like confetti, so wish on one
Before they’re gone

PRE CHORUS 1

Third and one from the gun
Underneath those Thursday night lights

CHORUS

Singing long live the night
It’s a song comin’ on, one that everyone knows
It’s a pass, it’s a run
It’s a see where it goes
It’s the guys and the girls under those
stadium lights

Singing long live the night
All the beers and the years gonna fly on by
We’re just small town stars holdin’ on to midnight
So take a sip, this is it, raise ’em on up real high
Singing long live the night

VERSE 2

Full moon risin
We ain’t there yet
Every minute’s a memory so drink it in
Before you know it’s over man it flies by fast
Make it last

PRE CHORUS 2

Make the most, coast to coast
Doin’ football on a Thursday right

CHORUS

Singing long live the night
It’s a song coming on, one that everyone knows
It’s a pass, it’s a run
It’s a see where it goes
It’s the guys and the girls under those
stadium lights

Third and one from the gun
Underneath those Thursday night lights

CHORUS

Singing long live the night
It’s a song coming on, one that everyone knows
It’s a pass, it’s a run
It’s a see where it goes
It’s the guys and the girls under those
stadium lights
