Crumblin' Down

John Mellencamp

Some people ain't no damn good
You can't trust 'em you can't love 'em
No good deed goes unpunished
And I don't mind bein' their whippin' boyI've had that pleasure for years and years
No no I never was a sinner tell me what else can I do
Second best is what you get till you learn to bend the rules
And time respects no person and what you lift up must fall
They're waiting outside to claim my tumblin' wallsSaw my picture in the paper
Read the news around my face
And some people don't want to
Treat me the sameWhen the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' down
Yeah yeah yeahSome people say I'm obnoxious and lazy
I'm uneducated my opinion means nothin'
But I know I'm a real good dancer
Don't need to look over my shoulder to see what I'm afterEverybody's got their problems ain't no new news here
I'm the same old trouble you've been havin' for years
Don't confuse the problem with the issue girl
It's perfectly clear, just a human desire to have you come nearWanna put my arms around you
Feel your breath in my ear
You can bend me you can break me
But you'd better stand clearWhen the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin'
Tumblin' tumblin' downWhen the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin' downWant to put my arms around you
Feel your breath in my ear
You can bend me you can break me
But you better stand clearWhen the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin'
Tumblin' tumblin'When the walls come tumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin'
Tumblin' tumblin'When the walls come trumblin' down
When the walls come crumblin' crumblin'
When the walls come tumblin' tumblin'
Tumblin' tumblin' down
