Burnin' the Roadhouse Down
Recorded by Steve Wariner with Garth Brooks
Written by Rick Carnes and Steve Wariner

G
Well the crowd is getting restless

It's smoky loud and hot

The band is heatin' up 
           A7                 D7
And giving everything they've got

    G
Somebody check the exits
   C
In case a fire breaks out
      G                    E7
We're packed in tight it's Saturday night
          A7          D7        G
And we're burnin' the roadhouse down

                  C
We're burning' it down
                  G
We're burnin' the roadhouse down
    C
The band is in full swing
              A7                D7
And man there ain't no stoppin' now

            G
There'll be nothin' left but ashes
     C
When Sunday rolls around
    G                     E7
But that's all right it's Saturday night
          G           D7        G
And we're burnin' the roadhouse down


It's a mob out on the dance floor

And the pressure's getting higher
                             
One spark from that fiddle bow 
      A7                D7
Could set this place on fire

     G
It's so cool to be here
       C
In the hottest place in town
G                   E7
Feels so right it's Saturday night
          G           D7        G
And we're burnin' the roadhouse down

Repeat #3,4


They’ll be sifting through the ashes
     C
When Sunday rolls around
    G                     E7
But that's all right it's Saturday night
          G           D7        G
And we're burnin' the roadhouse down
