Drag Me Down

[Verse 1]
I've been stuck in this dirt hole for days
Been sucked into your cloudy haze
Reflectin' back upon the very life that I've been given
Had bottles broken on my face
Cried out in shame and pure disgrace
But all the while, I watched and waited silently and driven

[Chorus]
You can try to drag me down
But my friend, you'll never get me any lower to the ground
You can try to drag me down
But in the end, my friend, you'll never get me lower to the ground

[Verse 2]
I've been sabotaged by lovers' lies
Been stabbed by jealous husbands' knives
My foolishness from other lives has surely been forgiven
I've had higher highs and lower lows than most of you will ever know
But by and by, I wouldn't change a thing that I've been given

[Chorus]
You can try to drag me down
But my friend, you'll never get me any lower to the ground
You can try to drag me down
But in the end, my friend, you'll never get me lower to the ground

[Pre-Chorus]
Watch me as I crawl to the place that I've been lookin' for
All these words I'd scrawl on the page just fall to the floor

[Chorus]
You can try to drag me down
But my friend, you'll never get me any lower to the ground
You can try to drag me down
But in the end, my friend, you'll never get me lower
No, in the end, my friend, you'll never get me lower to the ground
