Good luck gone, never felt so low
So I set out on a trail of woe
Anybody got in my way
Take it or leave it, nothing more to say
Mama sure wouldn't be proud of me
I knew then although I could not see
All the angels said 'now he's hell bent'
Steady your wings and let's make a bet
Here's a guy that thinks he's got it made
Drinking rye whiskey in the midnight shade
Take one down and pass it around
Come to me oh misery, meet me downtown
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
Staring at the phone but it don't make a sound
There's a picture of a love left town
She's probably with him getting me back
How could I blame her, its a two way track
Blame it on love, blame it on fate
Blame it on the one that you love to hate
But you can't sir, you won't sir, you just forget
There's a better way to learn and live
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
If I had to all to live it over again
I wouldn't change much but the shape I'm in
And I'd hold your hand, never let go
Stand up proud
If I had to all to live it over again
I wouldn't change much but the shape I'm in
And I'd hold your hand, never let go
Stand up proud so everyone would know
So everyone would know
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
That's the way it goes down
