I’ve Been Down

[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
