You tell lies
Thinking I can’t see,
You can’t cry
Cause you’re laughing at me.
I’m down,
I’m really down,
I’m down, down on the ground,
I’m down, I’m really down.
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
Man buys one woman
Clothes to wear,
Same old thing happen
Everyday.
I’m down,
I’m really down,
I’m down, down on the ground,
I’m down, I’m really down.
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
We’re all alone
And with nobody else.
She still says no
Keep you hands to yourself.
I’m down,
I’m really down,
I’m down, down on the ground,
I’m down, I’m really down.
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
How can you laugh
When you know I’m down?
Baby, baby you know I’m down
I’m realy down
I guess I’m down
I’m really down
Down on the ground
I’m down
I think I’m upside down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
I’m really down.
Baby, baby you know I’m down
I’m really down
I guess I’m down
I’m really down
Down on the ground
I’m down
I think I’m upside down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
I’m really down.
