Steel Magnolia, ‘Last Night Again’ – Lyrics Uncovered
“We rushed up to record, [and] we had to write a few more songs for [the album],” Jones tells Taste of Country. “Allison Jones, A&R at Big Machine, asked, ‘Do you have any favorite writers?’ We’d heard Hillary Lindsey’s songs, and we were always like, ‘Gosh, man … her songs are great.’ So we really wanted to get with her. We went over there, and she’s like my age and this cool, laid-back chick. So we sit on her floor and had a few beers and just wrote that song in a couple hours one afternoon … one sunny afternoon.”“It’s a young love, first time kind of thing,” adds Linsey.
“It’s really just about hooking up,” Jones smirks. “It’s a hook up song! Live, I’m always like, ‘Hey, this song’s about hooking up. For anybody who hasn’t hooked up, your parents have.’”
“Cause last night I was calling you mine / Discovering each other until the morning light / I don’t know where this is going but it sure feels right / Don’t want to leave you here tonight / So let’s do what we did last night … again,” the duo sings in the song’s chorus.
