Lyrics Let's Build a Fire - Cody Johnson

First cool snap of fall in the air
We been waitin' on it all damn year
Drag out a Carhartt and a chair
Let's build a fire

Shoulder pads crackin' on a high-school field
Openin' day is on our heels
God, I love how Friday night feels
Let's build a fire

Let's build a fire, let's crank it on up
Pour a little diesel in my cup
I'm finna toss it on, y'all better back up
Let's build a fire

You can't burn it down in the neighborhood
But it's all good back in the backwoods
Let the good time just transpire
Let's build a fire

We been talkin' 'bout it since July
Temp done dropped down to 45
Think it's time we take it higher
Let's build a fire

Come a little closer if you can
Put your little heart in my hand
Turn me on like an amplifier
Let's build a fire

Let's build a fire, let's crank it on up
Pour a little diesel in my cup
I'm finna toss it on, y'all better back up
Let's build a fire

You can't burn it down in the neighborhood
But it's all good back in the backwoods
Let the good time just transpire
Let's build a fire

Ah, here we go

Let's build a fire, let's light it on up
Pour a little diesel in a Sonic cup
I'm finna toss it on, y'all better back up (y'all better back up)

You can't burn it down in the neighborhood
But it's all good back in the backwoods
Let the good time just transpire
Let's build a fire

Ah, burn it down boys
