Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Come on, little baby, let's tear that dance floor up
Come on, little baby, let's tear that dance floor up
Come on, little mama, let me see you strut your stuff
[Verse 2]
Tear it up
Tear it up
Tear it up
Tear it up
Come on, little baby, let me see you strut your stuff
[Verse 3]
I'm a-leavin', little baby, gonna be gone a long, long time
I'm a-leavin', little baby, gonna be gone a long, long time
So come on, little baby, and show me a real good time
[Verse 4]
Tear it up
Tear it up
Tear it up, ow
Tear it up
So come on, little mama, let's tear that dance floor up
[Verse 5]
Well, you step back, baby, move my way
Step around again and let me hear you say
Tear it up
Tear it up
Come on, little baby, let's tear that dance floor up
[Verse 6]
Tear it up
Tear it up
Tear it up
Tear it up
Come on, little mama, let's tear that dance floor up
