Down Bad (Folk Rock Mix)

[intro] [verse 1] Manipulating the fabric of time Press stop and hit rewind They say it's the end of the line I ain't ready to say goodbye [short instrumental] [verse 2] Grew up barefoot in the mud Used to crawl before I stood It's not easy to stand up When everyone is lookin' down Always said when the time came I would answer the call Now days I don't hear nothin' at all [pre chorus] When all the mud has dried to dust What is there left for us [chorus 1] When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Take it all away, go on take everything Oh yeah When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Take it all away, go on take everything Oh, oh It never meant that much to me [instrumental interlude 1] [bridge] What is the cost To raise me up Is it too much I just want a taste Left here to struggle Always in trouble Shoulda learned better Can't tell what's the matter Was I not good enough Did I just have bad luck Were there chances I missed Maybe I deserve this [instrumental breakdown 1] [pre chorus 2] They gave me one more chance I'm sure it'll be my last [chorus 2] When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Take it all away, go on take everything Oh yeah When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Take it all away, go on take everything Oh, oh It never meant that much to me [post chorus] If only I had more time I could have changed my life [instrumental breakdown 2] [outro] When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Oh yeah When I was down, I was down bad And when I lost, I lost all I had Oh, oh Oh, oh Oh...no... It never meant that much to me... [fade out]
