I'VE BEEN DOWN
BY
HANK WILLIAM'S JR.
Dm F G Dm
Blew my last twenty dollars on a Oiler's football game
Dm F G Dm
I only lost by half a point, nothing ever goes my way
Dm F G Dm
Reagonomics and plastic people makin' good luck hard to find
Dm F G Dm
All this stuff that's goin' down's really got me down this time
D F C Dm
I've been down but not this far before
D F G A
I been kicked around but never out the door
Dm F C Dm
I been down but not like this before
Well the preacher man talking on the TV
He's beggin' for my only dime
I'd take another shot of whiskey
If I thought it'd get him off my mind
Chorus
I had to find a way to get some money
Never thought I'd go this far but it'd mean livin' out on the street
So I robbed a liquor store with my daddy's army gun
Had to shoot a cop comin' out the door and now, God, I'm on the run
Chorus
