We'll Burn That Bridge Lyrics
Brooks & Dunn
Lyrics
Hello Miss Heartbroke
Sit your sweet self down
It's good to see your dancin' feet back out on the town
Rumor has it you've had trouble with your man
I've had trouble of my own, I think I understand
We'll put out your old flame
We'll build a bigger fire
I'll pick up where he let you down
And take you so much higher
And if his memory comes around
And you think you still care
We'll burn that bridge when we get there
Come on let your hair down we'll have us a time
He had his chance with you now all I want is mine
Give me half an hour or just a dance or two
And you'll forget ol'
What's his name and how he walked out on you
We'll put out your old flame
We'll build a bigger fire
I'll pick up where he let you down
And take you so much higher
And if his memory comes around
And you think you still care
We'll burn that bridge when we get there
We'll put out your old flame
We'll build a bigger fire
I'll pick up where he let you down
And take you so much higher
And if his memory comes around
And you think you still care
We'll burn that bridge when we get there
Yeah, we'll burn that bridge when we get there
Burn it down, baby
