Slow Down Sun Down

Break-down, China-town, come-down, count-down
Cross-town, de-crown, down-town, evening-gown
Go-down, hand-me-down, ho-down, low-down
Melt-down, mid-town, Mo-town, night-gown

Shake-down, shanty- town, show-down, shut-down
Slow-down, sun-down
Slow-down, sun-down
Like a dead mouse in a flophouse
Nowhere else to go but up
Heavenwards is how it hurts
And even though my heart froze
Im learning youre exactly what I chose
Boohoo, crying all into my witches brew
Predisposed for heartache I suppose
Black and blue mom and pop juxtaposed
And its just the way the story goes
She called me 'Coco' called you 'Rose'
Hand me down all your favorite clothes
Horseshoe tossed, all the fortunes lost
Love, she flew away with the doves
Now its my time, my time to shine
I got my own crimes to do
Dont gotta pick up after you
But I just dont know what to do
With all these empty rooms
When you first laid eyes on me, did you never want to put me down?
Was I worth more to you than any girl in town, any girl in town?
When you first laid eyes on me, did you never want to put me down?
Was I worth more to you than any girl in town, any girl in town?
Tear my hair, throw my shoes , make love to you, Ill make love to you
I love you, I do, I guess, and youre so handsome, I got to say 'yes'
Tear my hair, throw my shoes, make love to you, Ill make love to you
You love me, you do, I guess, and youre so handsome,I got to say 'yes'
I got to say 'yes'
Home is where you hang your hat, all of that, mouse and cats and dogs
What are the odds of finding love again, one that you can call your kindred spirit?
You want to hear it? Yeah
I was humiliated, ill-fated, impersonated
Immigrated, manipulated, liquidated, medicated, dilapidated, isolated
I was alone in my own home, is where the heart breaks
When you first laid eyes on me, did you never want to put me down?
Was I worth more to you than any girl in town, any girl in town?
When you first laid eyes on me, did you never want to put me down?
Oh was I worth more to you than any girl in town?
Tear my hair, throw my shoes, make love to you, Ill make love to you
You love me, you do, I guess, and youre so handsome, I got to say 'yes'
Tear my hair, throw my shoes, make love to you, Ill make love to you
I love you, I do, I guess, I got to say 'yes'
When you first laid eyes on me did you never want to put me down?
Was I worth more to you than any girl in town, any girl in town?
