	Story Behind the Song A good friend of mine from Austin, Texas told me about the town and I loved it so much I wrote it into the story. I've still never been there, but I'd like to go someday. The songs was cut in my home studio with Danny Oberbeck on drums and Lief Frederick on bass. I overdubbed all the guitars and vocals. Lyrics Friday night in Austin It's such a lovely town The people are nice, the clubs are great There's music all around If I could settle down here Then things would be all right But I've got the itch to travel And I just love to ride Friday night in Austin Beats everywhere I've been Where I can breathe the summer air Where everyone's your friend Cricket's chirping loudly Fireflies fill the night New York is a different world Where life is such a fight The days are so relaxing The night's alive with sounds It's Friday night in Austin It's such a lovely town Chorus As much as I'd like to stay I've got the itch to ride But I'll be back someday, somehow I feel it deep inside Chorus
