"Playing with the Boys" is a song by American singer-songwriter Kenny Loggins for the film Top Gun, featured in the beach volleyball scene toward the middle of the film prior to Maverick's (Tom Cruise) dinner date with Charlie (Kelly McGillis).

"Playing with the Boys" is available on both the original 1986 Top Gun soundtrack album and the expanded edition.

This song was also used for many scenes in the 1990 beach volleyball film Side Out, starring C. Thomas Howell, Peter Horton and Courtney Thorne-Smith.

The song was later used in the season 5 American Dad! episode "Phantom of the Telethon", in which the characters Greg and Terry stage a recreation of the volleyball scene from Top Gun, their favorite movie.
