[Verse 1]
Pulled up with a cooler in my truck bed
Red dirt on my boots, sun on my face
You said, “This town’s dead”
I said, “Baby, not tonight, not in this place”
Got the back porch glowing like a fire sale
Old screen door slamming to the beat
Your laugh shot straight through me
Like a shot glass hitting concrete
[Pre-Chorus]
And if the world keeps spinning hard
We can spin it back around
One more song, one more round
We’re burning up this quiet town
[Chorus]
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Right where the hurt used to stay
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Till the long nights turn to day
Raise your glass, sing it loud
We make a little heaven out of dust and sound
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Baby, we don’t come down
[Verse 2]
Your mama’s old radio on the table
Static caught in between the chords
We were dancing in the driveway
Like we’d never had to want for more
Neighbors came by with a folding chair
Somebody brought a pie and a prayer
Your brother played that busted guitar
Like he was trying to tear open air
[Pre-Chorus]
And if the heart gets heavy, girl
We can leave it on the ground
One more song, one more round
We’re burning up this quiet town
[Chorus]
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Right where the hurt used to stay
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Till the long nights turn to day
Raise your glass, sing it loud
We make a little heaven out of dust and sound
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Baby, we don’t come down
[Bridge]
Let the moon hang low
Let the whole block know
We were born to make some noise
Out here with our people and our poison pride
If love’s a wild thing
Then let it run tonight
[Final Chorus]
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Right where the hurt used to stay
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Till the long nights turn to day
Raise your glass, sing it loud
We make a little heaven out of dust and sound
Throwin’ parties, throwin’ parties
Baby, we don’t come down
