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
|
Been kicked 'round
|
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 of my mind.
|
|
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.
|

|
|
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 'round
|
But never out the door,
|
I've been down
|
But not like this before.
|
|
Never this far before
|
Knock, Knock, Knockin on the door.
