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's really got me down this time

I've been down but not this far before

I've 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 TV

He's beggin' for my only dime

I'd take another shot of whiskey

If I thought it'd get him off my mind

I've been down but not this far 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...

Never this far before

Knock knock knock

Knock knock knockin' on the door
