Carried my suitcase
Across the highway
Nobody stopped
I don't blame them
In my pocket
A cigarette and coupons
I thought my future would've been different
I'm headed down, down, down, down, down
Got to Cheyenne
Met an honest man
Eyes like honeycomb
Down the streets we roamed
He said "You can't stay here
It's best to keep moving
This town is haunted
This place is jaded
It's going down, down, down, down, down."
It's going down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
(Yeah!)
Woke up in a seat belt
Headed for the next town
Keep fooling myself
Shame can't cross state lines
The truth about me
I don't wanna know
What the truth about me is
I wouldn't like what I was hearing
Don't let it get me down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down (Don't let it get me)
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down (Don't let it get me)
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down (Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh)
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down
