Down Here Lyrics


Hey there buddy why the old long face?
Get to lookin' like you lost the race
Get to lookin' like you didn't place at allWell I heard you been runnin' with a wilder cast
Playin' hard and livin' fast
And for a while you had a blast
You were feelin' ten feet tallChorus
You're gonna be alright
You'll be fine
You can have a nickel out of my last dime
The moon is bright
And you're alright down hereYour intentions good and well
Pave a little on the road to hell
Flew a little high and fell
You were smilin' all the while
Well you tried so bad just to be good
Hold your cards and you knock on wood
A little hotter than anyone should
But hey that's just your styleChorusAh you shot the moon and you wound up set

Ain't I taught you how to hedge a bet
Hate to say it but it's what you get, a right hook to the jaw
We all still think you're great
I'm gonna have to shoot you straight
You go to fishin' or you cut some bait, take a hammer to the wallChorusDon't go wastin' too much time down here

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Turnpike Troubadours, whose name is derived from the bumpy Oklahoma toll-roads and their hard lived folk singing heroes, are proof that isolation can be the mother of originality. Cutting their teeth in roadside dance halls and honky-tonks has made a serious impact on the band’s musical style, which walks the line between Woody Guthrie and Waylon Jennings. “Bossier City,” the band’s debut album, is testament to the small towns in which they were raised. It combines Folk, Country, Cajun, and Bluegrass with stories of longing, humor, tragedy, and general life in rural America.
