[Chorus]
Let 'em down, baby, come on
Let ’em down, tonight (Down, ooh, down)
Let 'em down, baby (Down, ooh, down)
Let 'em down, for me (Down, ooh, down)

[Verse]
I realize that they’re your friends, girl
And friends are hard to get in this world
But, do this for me
I know you've been invited to the party
But, for them, there's always a tomorrow

[Chorus]
(Down)
Let 'em down, baby (Oooh, down)
Let 'em down, tonight (Down, ooh, down)

[Bridge]
Life is always gonna hurt somebody
You've got what I need so, let your friends do without it
My love will be here when all your friends are gone
'Cause my friendship, my love, will live on and on

[Outro]
(Down)
Let 'em down, baby
(Ooh, down)
Let ’em down, tonight
Oh, baby
(Down)
Let ’em down, baby, yeah
(Oooh, down)
Let 'em down, for me, yeah
