What would you do if your father went mad
What would you do if your sister went bad
What would you do if your wife went away
What would you do that day
What would you do if your mother got ill
What would you do if your brother was killed
What would you do if your nightmares came true
Say what you'd wanna do
We'd go downtown
Drinking from morning to sundown
Watching the world spin around round
That's what we'd do that day (yeah hey)
Yes, we'd go downtown
Whatever happens in our town
We're gonna stay on our playground
Drinking our worries away
What would you do if your love was denied
What would you do if you're left without pride
What would you do if your sunshine turned blue
Say what you'd wanna do
What would you do if your house burnt to ground
What would you do if your friends let you down
What would do if your luck went away
What would you do that day
We'd go downtown
Drinking from morning to sundown
Watching the world spin around round
That's what we'd do that day (yeah hey)
Yes, we'd go downtown
Whatever happens in our town
We're gonna stay on our playground
Drinking our worries away
