I've Been Down

Blew my last twenty dollars on an Oiler's football game

I only lost by half a point, nothing ever goes my way

Reaganomics and plastic people makin' good luck hard to find

All this stuff that's goin' down, really got me down this time

I've been down

But not this far before

I been kicked around

But never out the door

I've been down

But not like this before

Well the preacher man's a talkin' on the T.V

He's beggin for my only dime

I'd take another shot of whiskey

If I thought it'd get him of my mind

I've been down

But not this far before

Been kicked around

But never out the door

I've been down

But not like this before

I had to find a way to get some money

Never thought I'd go this far

But It would mean living out on the streets

So I robbed a liquor store with my daddy's army gun

Had to shoot a cop coming out the door

And now God I'm on the run

I've been down

But not this far before.

Been kicked around

But never out the door

I've been down

But not like this before

Never this far before

Knock, knock, knock , knock

Knockin on the door
