Tearin It Up (And Burning It Down) - Lyrics by Garth Brooks


Lyrics
We all came here for a party tonight
\r
And your gonna get left if you don't get right, child
\r
So forget your troubles and forget the news
\r
We're gonna pull the plug and black out them blues
\r
And if your tie's to tight then adjust the noose
\r
'Cause if your gonna hang tight, cut loose
\r

\r
Tearin' it up
\r
And we're burin' it down
\r
Hey daddy's hide your daughters
\r
'Till the sun come back around
\r
'Cause we all came here to party
\r
We came to come unwound
\r
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
\r
Just to tear it up
\r
And to burn it down
\r

\r
We love to hear you stomp and sing
\r
Just swamp a little southeast western swing thing
\r
So just grab unto each other and let go
\r
Make a little midnight moonlight mo-jo
\r
When the magic happens let it all hang out
\r
If you wanna join the fun shout
\r

\r
Tearin' it up
\r
And we're burin' it down
\r
Hey daddy's hide your daughters
\r
'Till the sun come back around
\r
'Cause we all came here to party
\r
We came to come unwound
\r
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
\r
Just to tear it up
\r
And to burn it down
\r

\r
Tearin' it up
\r
And we're burin' it down
\r
Hey daddy's hide your daughters
\r
'Till that sun come back around
\r
'Cause we all came here to party
\r
We came to come unwound
\r
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
\r
Just to tear it up
\r
And to burn it down
\r

\r
We know you like to party
\r
We know you like to throw it down
\r
So go tell everybody
\r
Let's get them all around
\r
We're gonna tear it up
\r
And burn it down
\r
\r
