Lyrics The Marshall Tucker Band

The Marshall Tucker Band

Down We Go

THERE'S A BAR ROOM

JUST A PLACE TO SPEND MY TIME

WITH CROWDS AND WHISKEY

TO HELP EASE WHAT'S ON MY MIND

THE SAME TIRED FACES

ALL PRETENDING LIFE IS FINE

THE SAME TIRED EYES IN THE MIRROR

PRETENDING THEY WON'T CRY

SHE SAID DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

SHE PICKED UP HER LIFE AND DROVE AWAY

DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

I'M SO AFRAID I CAN'T GO ON

A PLACE TO PROVE SHE'S REALLY GONE

DOWN WE GO

SHE WAS AN ANGEL

LIKE ONCE UPON A TIME

LIKE THE STORY

THAT KEEPS PLAYIN ON MY MIND

AND ALL HER SMILES

THAT USED TO FILL MY DAYS

ARE FADED MEMORIES

IN THE SMOKEY NEON HAZE

SHE SAID DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

SHE PICKED UP HER LIFE AND DROVE AWAY

DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

I'M SO AFRAID I CAN'T GO ON

A PLACE TO PROVE SHE'S REALLY GONE

DOWN WE GO

OOOH SOMETIMES IN MY LIFE IT SEEMS

ALL MY HOPES AND DREAMS JUST FADE TO GRAY

AND LIKE THE WHISKEY IN MY GLASS

TONIGHT I'LL DROWN HER MEMORIES AWAY

SHE SAID DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

SHE PICKED UP HER LIFE AND DROVE AWAY

DOWN WE GO FOR THE LAST TIME

I'M SO AFRAID I CAN'T GO ON

A PLACE TO PROVE SHE'S REALLY GONE

DOWN WE GO

I'M SO AFRAID I CAN'T GO ON

A PLACE TO PROVE SHE'S REALLY GONE

DOWN WE GO
