[Verse 1]
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 (How ya' been?)
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 go)

[Chorus]
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
(Are you still feeling good?)

[Verse 2]
We been talkin' 'bout it since July
Temp done dropped down to forty-five
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 go)
[Chorus]
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
(I feel like I'm on fire)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Let's build a fire, let's fire 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)
We 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
(Oh, shit)
