What a Song Should Do

If it don't make you dance
It better make you think
If it don't get your soul burnin'
It better make you drink

Yeah, that's what you drive to, cry to
Make you feel alive to
When you have nothing left to lose
It better get you laughin'
Break your heart in two
That's what a song should do

It should make you go, "Hell, yeah!" (Hell, yeah!), me too (Me too)
Yeah, that's what a song should do
It should make you feel alright (alright), all night (all night)
With four chords and the truth
That's what a song should do

It's not a record, your daddy used to play
It's that first dance... on your wedding day...
It's should shape you, change you
Break you down and break through
Like you've got nothing left to prove
Put some words on your tattoo
That's what a song should do

It should make you go, "Hell, yeah!" (Hell, yeah!), me too (Me too)
Yeah, that's what a song should do
It should make you feel alright (alright), all night (all night)
With four chords and the truth
Yeah...
It should be a soundtrack singing every moment of your life
The beat that keep your party goin' until the sunrise
Can't help but sing along to...
It should make you go, "Hell, yeah!" (Hell, yeah!), or me too (Me too)
That's what a song should do

Oh, yeah
(Woah oh oh woah oh)
That's what a song should do
That's what a song should do
(Woah oh oh woah oh)
It should mean something to you...

See what keeps you going
What tilts that flicker in your flame
And when your candle burns out...
What song they gonna play
What song they gonna play

It should make you go, "Hell, yeah!" (Hell, yeah!), me too (Me too)
Yeah, that's what a song should do
It should make you feel alright (alright), all night (all night)
With four chords and the truth
Yeah...
It should be a soundtrack singing every moment of your life
The beat that keep your party goin' until the sunrise
Can't help but sing along to...
It should make you go, "Hell, yeah!" (Hell, yeah!), or me too (Me too)
That's what a song should do
