Walter Egan - Down, Down lyrics

Like an eight point tremor on the Richter scale Like a cement mixer Like the winds of a gale You shake me Like a lonely pawn in the path of a queen Like a winning hand if you know what I mean You take me By surprise You don't love me You just let me down You don't love me You just let me down Down, down, down Down, down, down Like a well known story Like a popular brand Like an unkept secret Like the back of your hand You know me Like an exhibition Like a film on the screen Like a demonstration if you know what I mean You show me Show me how You keep with me You don't slow me down You keep with me You don't slow me down Down, down, down Down, down, down Like a panacea Like a week in the sun Like a stitch in time Like a check when it comes You mend me Just like an airmail letter Like a radio beam Like a big green traffic light You know what I mean You send me You send me out You stay with me You don't let me down You stay with me You don't let me down Down, down, down Down, down, down Down, down, down Down, down, down Down, down, down Down, down, down
