Kickin' and a-screamin' Only way I learn I'm afraid of my own shadow Not the bridge around the turn Well I lost myself and found myself While you were kissin' ass And I know it's not your nature Just to let me pass I'm gonna go down swingin' Singin' till the end I'm gonna go down swingin' You and me and your best friend I'm gonna go down swingin' Upper cut and two left jabs I'm gonna go down swingin' with everything I have Sometimes I am a predator Prowlin' for my life Other times I am a field mouse Running for the sides Of the biggest, flattest corn field Bigger than my Indiana home 'Til the harvest comes along And I leave my tiny bones Songtexte I'm gonna go down swingin' Singin' till the end I'm gonna go down swingin' Like the Duke recommends I'm gonna go down swingin' For the bleachers in left field I'm gonna go down swingin' like a blade of steel There's a scarecrow scarin' nothin' Trumpet player in the barn And he's puffin' both his cheeks out And he's liftin' both his arms As he blows his notes to heaven As the preacher dunks you in And all along the river The air is sweet as sin I wanna go down singin' Hallelujah Gabriel I wanna go down singin' Oh, you play the blues so well I wanna go down swingin' Three sheets to the wind I wanna go down swingin', punch drunk to the end Aus Songtexte Mania
