## Lyrics
[verse]
Got my paycheck sitting right here in my hand
Gonna spend it all before the week's end
Ain't got no worries, ain't got no cares
Gonna dance downtown to the midnight square

[chorus]
Tear it up, tear it up, gonna have a ball tonight
Tear it up, tear it up, everything's alright
Save my money? No I never do
Tear it up tonight, gonna dance it through

[verse]
Put on my best shoes, comb my hair back slick
Grab a girl and dance, movin' fast and quick
Monday's gonna come but I don't care today
Tear it up tonight and dance the night away

[chorus]
Tear it up, tear it up, gonna have a ball tonight
Tear it up, tear it up, everything's alright
Save my money? No I never do
Tear it up tonight, gonna dance it through

[bridge]
Some folks save it up for a rainy day
I'm gonna spend it all and dance it away
Life's too short to sit around and frown
Tear it up and rock this whole town

[chorus]
Tear it up, tear it up, gonna have a ball tonight
Tear it up, tear it up, everything's alright
Save my money? No I never do
Tear it up tonight, gonna dance it through
