delbert mcclinton - livin' it down lyrics
my ship came and she sunk it
i was the toast of the town and she drunk it
i had a run of good luck and she ran it right into the ground
and now’s she’s puttin’ on a show and
i get to play the clown
i had the wind in my sails and she took it
i had the world by the tail and she shook it
i reached out for a lifeline and she threw me a noose
i got the short end of the chicken and
she got the golden goose
she’s livin’ it up, and i’m tryin’ to live it down
just when i got it all together,
it’s all about to come unwound
everbody laughing behind my back, baby
sure is a sad old sound
she’s out there livin’ it up and i’m tryin’ to live it down
oh man i’m having a hard time
i wouldn’t talk to a dog the way that woman talks to me
sheesh, and money
i ain’t got no more money
she done spent all my money
it’s bad bad business, bad business
i had my ducks in a row and she shot ’em
i had my eggs in a basket and she dropped ’em
i her out of the house but she was back like a boomerang
sometime you get the honey
sometime all you get is the sting
she’s livin’ it up, and i’m tryin’ to live it down
just when i got it all together,
it’s all about to come unwound
everbody laughing behind my back, baby,
sure is a sad old sound
she’s out there livin’ it up and i’m tryin’ to live it down
she’s livin’ it up, and i may never live it down
