Poor Man’s Poison
C’mon Down
[Chorus]
Hey man, c'mon down
They’re sellin' truth on the corner now
Look at them all dressed in white
Said the angels musta came into town last night
Hey man, c'mon down
They got your fix on a corner downtown
Look at him with the heavy heart
Broke down at the bottom
Not knowin’ where to start
Singin'
[Verse 1]
It's all there in black and white
You can lay down or you can put up a fight
Or you can break bread with the beggars and thieves
Or you can high-horse your way to your knees
Or you can take that lesson that you learned today
Share it around or throw it away
But in the end you're gonna see
You're the only one and this life's just a game
Until the game stops bein' fun
[Chorus]
Hey man, c'mon down
They’re sellin’ truth on the corner now
Look at them all dressed in white
Said the angels musta came into town last night
Hey man, c'mon down
They got your fix on a corner downtown
Look at him with the heavy heart
Broke down at the bottom
Not knowin’ where to start
[Verse 2]
Well he's-a, broke down, he's a bad seed
He's all coked-out, down on his knees
He took a- a wrong turn, down the wrong street
And he- he got burned by his family
He says "I’m givin' up", he says "I'm givin' in"
Got the preacher man preachin' 'bout livin' in sin
He's got God and the Devil fightin' for his soul
He got bought for a price and now he's sellin' it all
[Pre-Chorus]
Singin'
Hey man, c'mon down
Singin'
Hey man, c'mon down
Singin'
[Chorus]
Hey man, c'mon down
They're sellin' truth on the corner now
Look at them all dressed in white
Said the angels musta came into town last night
Hey man, c'mon down
They got your fix on a corner downtown
Look at him with the heavy heart
Broke down at the bottom
Not knowin' where to start
[Outro]
Singin'
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
C'mon down, c'mon, c'mon down
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
Hey-ey-ey
C'mon down, c'mon, c'mon down
