Music video

edit

The music video was directed by the Malloys[citation needed] and shows the band performing at night on a checker-flag pattern stage. NASCAR drivers Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Tony Stewart are shown racing through the streets in custom Chevrolet Tahoes.[citation needed] Both drivers eventually end up on a local short track where a race is underway. The scorekeeping girl begins to name them on the chart. The two eventually bust out of the track and go back onto the streets.
