Allison Moorer - Going Down lyrics

(Allison Moorer/Doyle Primm)

Up 'til now my lucky stars shined brightest in the sky

I was living in the lap of the gods

But Miss Fortune turned the tables and turned out all the light

Now there's no chance in hell I'll beat the odds

I'm going down

Going down

Down down down

I'm going down

Up 'til now I never looked at what was in the cards

Played fast and loose,

I didn't, didn't give a damn

But a joker who is wild like me can't beat the old graveyard

If he's staring at a dead man's hand

I'm going down

Going down

Down down down

Down down down down

I'm going down

Up 'til now the thought of losing didn't cross my mind

It felt good, so good to gamble with my soul

But what was I a thinking why'd I lay it on the line

Everybody, everybody one day has to fold

I'm going down

Going down

Down down down

I'm going down

I'm going down

Going down

I lost this round

I'm going down
