Friday night, the DQ's packed
We're lookin' good, got the top laid back
Me and my buddies, Tommy and Jack
Stones blarin' in the old 8 Track
Checkin' out the girls at the stoplight
We played it cool and never made our move 'til the time was right

We owned this town
(Every night) Every night when the sun went down
Livin' a dream, standing our ground
We made our moves
We were nobody's fool
We owned this town

We had an obligation
The word was out around town
We had a reputation
That we could never live down
The world was ours for the takin'
Sometimes I wish that I could turn back time
And do it all again

'Cause we owned this town
(Every night) Every night when the sun went down
Livin' a dream, standing our ground
We made our moves
We were nobody's fool
We owned this town
Yea, we owned this town

The world was ours for the takin'
Ohh, sometimes I wish that I could turn back time
And do it all again

'Cause we owned this town
(Every night) Every night when the sun went down
Livin' a dream, standing our ground
We made our moves
We were nobody's fool
We owned this town

That's right

We owned this town
