Hank Williams Jr. - I’ve Been Down lyrics
[Hank Williams Jr. - I’ve Been Down lyrics]
On an Oilers football game
I only lost by half a point
Nothing ever goes my way
Reaganomics and plastic people
Makin' good luck hard to find
All this stuff that's goin' down
Really got me down this time
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
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
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
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
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
Never this far before
