Kick Me When I`m Down — текст песни (Tim O`Brien)

I had to leave her when I done her wrong
Figured I would come back before too long
As soon as I moved out, you started comin` around
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down

Kick me when I`m down, down level with the ground
Spread it all around, all over this town
Everybody I know knows I nothin` but a clown
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down

Seems you got the story on the rumor mill
She had a billionaire uncle, she was in his will
You were cryin` at the funeral, makin` mounful sounds
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down

Kick me when I`m down, down level with the ground
Spread it all around, all over this town
Everybody I know knows I nothin` but a clown
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down

Figured that i knew when enough was enough
I went back to her place, to pick up all my stuff
I was slippin` in the back door, I heard you bouncin` in the bed
I forgot about my toothbrush, went for my gun instead

Picture in the paper, invitation in the mail
Couldn`t make the wedding, couldn`t go my bail
Got your honeymoon postcard, jailer brought it around
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down

Kick me when I`m down, down level with the ground
Spread it all around, all over this town
Everybody I know knows I nothin` but a clown
Ain`t it like an old friend to kick me when I`m down
