Ain't Going Down ('Til The Sun Comes Up)

Garth Brooks


Six o’clock on Friday evening, Momma doesn’t know she’s leaving
‘Til she hears the screen door slamming, Rubber squealin’ gears a-jamming
Local country station just a blaring on the radio
Pick him up at seven and they’re headin’ to the rodeo
Momma’s on the front porch screamin’ out her warning, girl you
Better get your red head back in bed before the morning

Nine o’clock the show is ending but the fun is just beginning
She knows he’s anticipating but she’s gonna keep him waiting
Grab a bite to eat and then they’re heading to the honkey tonk
But loud crowds and line dancing just ain’t what they really want
Drive out to the boondocks and park down by the creek
And where it’s George Strait real late dancing cheek to cheek

Chorus:
   Ain’t going down ’til the sun comes up
   Ain’t givin’ in ’til they get enough
   Going ‘round the world in a pickup truck
   Ain’t goin’ down ’til the sun comes up

Solo

Ten ’til twelve is wine and dancing midnight starts the hard romancing
One o’clock that truck is rocking two is coming, still no stopping
Break to check the clock at three they’re right on where they want to be
And four o’clock get up and going five o’clock that rooster’s crowing

Solo

Repeat Chorus

Six o’clock on Saturday her folks don’t know he’s on his way
The stalls are clean, the horses fed they say she’s grounded ’til she’s dead
Well here he comes around the bend slowing down, she’s jumping in
Hey mom, your daughter’s gone and there they go again

Solo

Repeat Chorus

Instrumental
