Falling Down Lyrics

I've come 500 miles just to see your halo
Come from St. Petersburg, Scarlett and me

Well I open my eyes, I was blind as can be
when you give a man luck, he must fall in the sea
And she wants you to steal and get caught
For she loves you for all that you are not
falling down, falling down
falling down, falling down,

You forget all the roses don't come around on Sunday
She's not gonna choose you for standing so tall
Go on take a swig of that poison and like it
don't ask for silverware,
don't ask for nothing
Go on and put your ear to the ground
you'll be hearing that sound,
falling down falling down,
falling down falling down,
Go on down see that wrecking ball
come swing in on her now
Everyone knew that hotel was a goner
They broke all the windows and took all the door k***s
And they hauled it away in a couple of days
Now someone yelled timber, take off your hat
It's a lot smaller down here on the ground
falling down, falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
Someone's falling down, falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
