When you're down on your luck
And you need somebody, baby
I hope that you can understand
'Cause when you're down on your luck
And you need somebody
I ain't gonna be that man
I hope you're broken, baby
I hope you're beat down
I hope your pain is here to stay
'Cause when you're down on your luck
And you need somebody, baby
You better look the other way
I hope you're treated like a one night stand
I hope you're giving in to jealousy
Deep in the gutters where you're meant to land
And it's gonna set me free
When you're down on your luck
And you need somebody, baby
I hope that you can understand
'Cause when you're down on your luck
And you need somebody
I ain't gonna be that man
