AC/DC - Kick You When You're Down lyrics

As you're slipping down the wall
And you're headin' for a fall
As you're slipping down the wall

Why do they kick you when you're down?
Why do they kick you when you're down?

Hey, mama why are you beatin' on my head?
Hey, hey woman why do you kick me outta bed?
I said

Is it something, is it something that I said?

(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no) as you're slippin' down the wall
And you're headin' for a fall
Why do they kick you when you're down?
Why do they kick you when you're down?

Shady lady
You think that money grows on trees
Rotten apples by the barrel ain't a delicacy
And you see

Is this the way, the way it's meant to be?

(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no) as you're slippin' down the wall
And you're headin' for a fall
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no) so down

And I don't need to say
To say it ain't a sacrifice

Is this the way, the way it's meant to be?

(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no) as you're slippin' down the wall
And you're headin' for a fall
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no)
Why do they kick you when you're down?
(Oh no) why do they kick you?
Man, they're trying to trick
You when you're down
