Tearin' It Up (And Burnin' It Down)


Written by: Kent Blazy, Kim Williams, Garth Brooks; Album: Double Live; Produced by: Capitol Records-1998


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

We're tearin' it up
And we're burnin' it down
Hey daddies hide your daughters
'Til that sun comes back around
'Cause we all came here to party
We came to come unwound
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
Just to tear it up
And to burn it down

We love to hear you stomp and sing
This swampy little southeast western swing thing
So let's grab on to each other and lettin' go
Make a little midnight moonlight mojo
And when the magic happens, let it all hang out
If you wanna jump up and shout
Tearin' it up
And we're burnin' it down
Hey daddies hide your daughters
'Til that sun comes back around
'Cause we all came here to party
We came to come unwound
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
Just to tear it up
And to burn it down

Yeah we're tearin' it up
And we're burnin' it down
Hey daddies hide your daughters
'Til that sun comes back around
'Cause we all came here to party
We came to come unwound
So go tell everybody that the boys are back in town
Just to tear it up
And to burn it down

We know you like to party
We know you like to throw it down
So go tell everybody
Oh let's get 'em all around
We're goin' to tear it up
And to burn it down
