Lyrics

It was eleven o'clock
And the big bands' cookin'
She got a gleam in her eye
When she caught me lookin'

Smokin' hot with a dry martini
No man in sight, so I thought it my duty
To walk up and as her
If she'd be my partner tonight

(Backup)Go - Go - Tear Up The Floor!(/Backup)
After one quick swing she was beggin' for more
(Backup)Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor!(/Backup)
If it's all right with you how 'bout you be a hot number for me

(Intro theme repeat)

It was twelve o'clock
And the band was still rippin'
The music's hot
And the patrons are drippin'

She said "I dig you Daddy and you got a way"
Then she kept on shakin' what her momma gave
And then she whispered
"Hey, let's torch this place"

(Backup) Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor! (/Backup)
Well we've had a couple drinks so lets have a couple more
(Backup) Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor! (/Backup)
If it's all right with you how 'bout you be a hot number for me

(Inst. Break)

It was two o'clock and the last bell's ringin'
We were all in shock when the singer stopped singin'
He said "I hate to say it, but this will be our last song"
"If you know the bump, how 'bout you swing along"
She says "Look out baby"
"Cuz this is where I'm comin' on strong"

(Backup) Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor! (/Backup)
Well we've had a few drinks so what's a few more?
(Backup) Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor! (/Backup)
If it's all right with you how 'bout you be a hot number for me

(Backup)Go - Go - Tear Up The Floor!(/Backup)
After one quick swing she was beggin' for more
(Backup)Let's Go! Go! Tear Up The Floor!(/Backup)
If it's all right with you how 'bout you be a hot number for me
