I’ve Been Down

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blew my last twenty dollars On an Oilers football game I only lost by half a point Nothing ever goes my way [Verse 2] Reaganomics and plastic people Makin' good luck hard to find All this stuff that's goin' down Really got me down this time [Chorus] I've been down But not this far before Been kicked 'round But never out the door I've been down But not like this before [Verse 3] Well the preacher man's a-talkin' on the TV He's beggin' for my only dime I'd take another shot of whiskey If I thought it'd get him of my mind [Chorus] I've been down But not this far before Been kicked 'round But never out the door I've been down But not like this before [Bridge] 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 [Chorus] I've been down But not this far before Been kicked 'round But never out the door I've been down But not like this before [Refrain] Never this far before
