Ain't Goin' Down ('Til the Sun Comes Up
Written by - Kent Blazy, Kim Williams & Garth Brooks
From - In Pieces
Six o'clock on Friday evening
Mama doesn't know she's leaving
'Til she hears the screen door slamming
Rubber squealing, gears a jamming
Local country station just a blaring on the radio
Pick him up at seven and they're heading to the rodeo
Mama's on the front porch screaming out a warning
'Girl you better get your red head back in bed before the morning'

Nine o'clock, show is ending
But the fun is just beginning
She know's he's anticipating
But she's gonna keep him waiting
Grab a bite to eat and then they're heading to the honky 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, yeah
Where it's George Strait 'til real late and dancing cheek to cheek

Ain't going down 'til the sun comes up
Ain't giving in 'til they get enough
Go around the world in a pickup truck
Ain't going down 'til the sun comes up

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 wanna be
An' four o'clock get up and going
Five o'clock the rooster's crowing

Yeah, they ain't going down 'til the sun comes up
Ain't giving in 'til they get enough
Go around the world in a pickup truck
Ain't going down 'til the sun comes up

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

Ain't going down 'til the sun comes up
Ain't giving in 'til they get enough
Go around the world in a pickup truck
Ain't going down 'til the sun comes up
