One day when I was on my way to school I said to myself Boy, this isn't for you Then I threw my books and picked up my guitar I played all night and day. I know that some day I'll go far. I'm going down And all my life I've been chasing rainbows And I was always too loud and had fights with my neighbors I drink too much, but I have magic touch And only my fists help me in this life. I'm going down When I woke up this morning with no breakfast in my bed I knew my darling was gone and I felt so mad Now I'm goding downstairs right on the street To face another day that has no mercy for me. I'm going down I go straight to the bar to drink another beer To put myself together and throw away the fears �Cause tonight is the night when I'll go around the bars To find myself a new lady who will take me up to the stars. I'm going down
