Creedence Clearwater Revival Lyrics

"Tearin' Up The Country" lyrics



Playin' a pavilion on the outskirts of town,
Playin' where my roller derby rolls.
Just a part time music man, A nobody at the plant,
I'm Tearin' Up The Country with a song.

Mom and Papa told me "Son, you gotta go to school;
Only way to make the fam'ly proud."
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.

Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.

Play it loud, now! Woo!

Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
I paid no attention, left my books at home,
Rather play my music real loud.
Lyrics
Ran into a dry spell, seemed nowhere to go.
Good luck turned the tide, I'm on my way.
I remember loadin' big trucks
When the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.

Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
I remember loadin' big trucks
When the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.

Tearin' Up The Country with a song.
I'm tearin' Up The Country with a song.
I remember loadin' big trucks
When the summer sun was hot,
You know I could still be there, but I'm not.
