Going Down Lyrics

Allison Moorer

Up til now my lucky stars shined brightest in the sky
I was living in the lap of the gods
But miss fortune turned the tables and turned out all the light
Now theres no chance in hell Ill beat the odds
Im going down
Going down
Down down down
Im going down
Up til now I never looked at what was in the cards
Played fast and loose,
I didnt, didnt give a damn
But a joker who is wild like me cant beat the old graveyard
If hes staring at a dead mans hand
Im going down
Going down
Down down down
Down down down down
Im going down
Up til now the thought of losing didnt cross my mind
It felt good, so good to gamble with my soul
But what was I a thinking whyd I lay it on the line
Everybody, everybody one day has to fold
Im going down
Going down
Down down down
Im going down
Im going down
Going down
I lost this round
Im going down
