Down to Go

Leave another, how can you go?
How can't you know, I mean by now?
We're kids forever, ain't we tho?
Ain't we so high and wild?

You say, Oh, you'll spin your heartache into gold
And I suppose but it rips my heart out don't you know
But if I'm waking each morning babe
All aching and ornery babe
All vacant and thorny, hey I'm down to go

The kids of summer, don't we glow?
Oh ain't we bold, just winding out
Hey can this kill me? Hey, I don't know
But I been sho' finding out

You say, Oh, you'll spin this heartache into gold
And I suppose but it rips my heart out don't you know
But if I'm waking each morning babe
All aching and ornery babe
All vacant and thorny, no, it's time to go

Leave the city. Can't we go?
Can't we tho? I mean, right now.
I know it's a pity. Hey, but it's getting cold
And it's getting old, this whoring around

You say, Oh, you'll spin this heartache into gold
And I suppose, I ain't got much choice now do I tho?
See I can't wake every morning babe
All aching and ornery babe
All jaded and thorny, no, I'm down to go
