Paslay co-wrote this song with Rose Falcon and Rob Crosby. The Texan native singer-songwriter said that one of his favorite things to do on Friday nights growing up in his home state was to go to the dancehalls. "It was everyone from grandparents to their grandkids hanging out, and always good live music and pretty girls to ask to dance and hopefully, they say yes, you know," he recalled. "When I think of the great memories on Friday nights back home and growing up and what I do now, it always has to do with music and dancing and having a good time and some good beverages."
This was the third single released by Paslay under his recording contract with EMI Records Nashville. He had previously achieved success as a songwriter having co-penned hits for Jake Owen ("Barefoot Blue Jean Night"), Eli Young Band ("Even If It Breaks Your Heart") and Love and Theft ("Angel Eyes").
The Mason Dixon directed video is about a Friday night out on the town. The clip was shot in downtown Nashville and features a cameo by Big Kenny of Big & Rich. "It truly felt like a 'Friday Night' as we started filming in downtown Nashville at 8:30pm and ended around 3:30am," said Paslay. "There's nothing like cruisin' through the neon lights in a sweet 1974 Cadillac candy apple rag top convertible with your friends!"
