Down Like Me

Everybody loves to stick with a winner But you showed me the line between victory and dying Couldn't get much thinner 'cuz you You found out how to get down-Down Like Me When my self-pity became less than full time work I meditated on the methods and the means And whether or not it would hurt Then I got the call they found you swinging out over the earth So over me you win again In finishes, forms, in finals and in firsts You finally had to get down-Down Like Me "By the time you read this I will no longer be here" I had to read these words to all your family/friends Everybody you never held dear We'll keep an empty place at dinner forever And I'll maintain and empty chair so you can set in And we'll never grow old together You showed 'em how to get down-Down Like Me Aus Songtexte Mania
