The House I Grew Up In Lyrics

I said, 'Oh'

She said, 'My head aches'

But she's still dancing to the music that my band plays

I said, 'Oh'

I watch her legs shake

And she was jumping up and down just like an earthquake

I said, 'Oh'

I watch her sweat drip

I saw her clap her hands and close her eyes and bite her bottom lip

I said, 'Oh'

I watch her dress rip

In the car behind the club for a quick fix

And, oh

I watch her drink spill

I saw her dance right back to the bar to get a refill

I said, 'Oh'

Pick up your teeth

And all the kids they were clapping Mississippi

And, oh

We hit the mirror

And we scream a little louder so that everyone can hear; we said:

Oh oh, let the band play

I'm being broken up and ripped apart by X-rays

I said oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

They can't stop us

They can't stop us

They can't stop us now

I said, 'Oh'

In the back room

On the couch, I caught a whiff of your perfume

And, oh

See the crowd rage

It was a sea of nicotine beaten teenage

And, oh

Full of heartbreak

We spent the New Year's Eve with the Champagne

And, oh

In the bathroom

Because my band was going on a little too soon

And, oh

I see stars

We spent the last few hours wastin' money in the bar

I said, 'Oh'

On the stage

Because the kids were going crazy to that Mississippi rain

Oh oh, let the band play

I'm being broken up and ripped apart by X-rays

I said oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

They can't stop us

They can't stop us
