Curtis Mayfield
When I Was Down
[Chorus]
When I was down you wasn't there for me
Pushed my love right out the door
At this point, I can't take no more
When I was down you wasn't there for me
That's the reason I'm leaving you
Girl I'm through
[Verse 1]
My all and my everything
She couldn't do no wrong, until the cash was gone
And she fronted like she cared for me
But what's the possibility she was getting me for my money
[Chorus]
When I was down you wasn't there for me
Pushed my love right out the door
At this point, I can't take no more
When I was down you wasn't there for me
That's the reason I'm leaving you
Girl I'm through
[Verse 2]
No more lies baby things done changed
I'm not the man I used to be, I gotta look out for me
And after all that we've been through
I can't believe that you would think I could love you
[Bridge]
Now things done changed and my life just ain't the same
You've been trying to come back home to me
That ain't gonna happen
[Chorus]
When I was down you wasn't there for me
Pushed my love right out the door
At this point, I can't take no more
When I was down you wasn't there for me
That's the reason I'm leaving you
Girl I'm through
When I was down you wasn't there for me
Pushed my love right out the door
At this point, I can't take no more
When I was down you wasn't there for me
That's the reason I'm leaving you
Girl I'm through
When I was down you wasn't there for me
Pushed my love right out the door
At this point, I can't take no more
When I was down you wasn't there for me
That's the reason I'm leaving you
Girl I'm through
