Put You Down

Some people say the world's a strange and evil place

And all the shadows fall across your face

Because the world's a strange and evil place

Then others say because the sun shines every day

That we should live life come what may

Because the sun shines every day

But I gotta say

That I just can't put you down

And all the girls think I'm insane

You know I can't put you down

And my dad can't recall my name

But I just can't put you down

And my friends won't call back at all

But I just can't put you down

Some people say

If you feed a dog a bloody bone

He's your best friend for your life

If you feed a dog a bloody bone

Patch up your dreams

With all the gold that falls at your feet

Stick your finger in a dike

All the gold falls at your feet

And I want to say

You know I just can't put you down

And all the women think that I'm insane

You know I just can't put you down

And my Mom won't call back at all

You know I just can't put you down

I rub my wounds with alcohol

You know I just can't put you down

I just can't put you down

There ain't a pill that'll cure that pain

But I just can't put you down

Some people say

That money can buy anything

All the drugs to cure the pain

Money can buy anything

Then some people want

All the sin and pleasure in this world

They don't care about the price

They pay for all the sin and pleasure in this world

But I've gotta say

You know I just can't put you down

I don't care how far I fall

You know I just can't put you down

And I don't care if they call back at all

I just can't put you down

All the women can forget my name

You know I just can't put you down

You know I just can't put you down

You know I just can't put you down

You know I just can't put you down
