Burnin Down Lyrics - Singles - Patty Larkin

Get the baby and the bath water pack it up 

Get the truck in the backyard and back it up 

It's burnin' down 

Tie it off with a little piece of clothes line 

Pile it up now if something falls we'll never mind 

It's burnin' down 

Run along the river, get your brother and your sister 

Hurry up now and don't stop for nothing, mister 

Burnin' down 

Dear mother, it's moving below the ridge 

Dear father, it's coming across the bridge 

It's burnin' down 

Dust to dust and ashes to ashes 

Hear the road, feel the heat that's what fast is 

It's burnin' down 

Tires scream, children quiet and wild eyed 

Can't get far enough away from the mountain side 

It's burnin' down 

Dear mother, it's moving below the ridge 

Dear father, it's coming across the bridge 

It's burnin' down, burnin' down
