Goin’ Down Swingin’ - Lyrics

< Music | < Mondo Magneto

Lyrics

If we're goin' to hell we don't need to pack

Got a one way ticket cuz we ain't comin' back

Like Nancy and Sid, Courtney and Curt

They say wherever we go someone's gonna get hurt

I don't need a gypsy or my palm read to see

That's my girl cuz she's bad like me

Ya got stuff on your mind? Ya got somethin' to say?

Gotta get on this [or get out of our way, yeah]

People said from the jump,

"They're no good, ain't nothin' but bad news you're bringin'"

Let people say what people want

If we're going down, we're going down swingin'...

Goin' down swingin, yeah

We'll take the backwood roads on a full moon ride

Just like Johnny and June, like Bonnie and Clyde

Just like Adam and Eve we gonna split this scene

You're the strike of the match on my gasoline

[chorus]

Momma said from the start, "they're no good"

She cried while the church bells were ringin'

We jumped the tracks, no turnin' back

If we're going down, we're goin' down swingin'.

She got her head in my lap, got the gun in the rack

We got some beer up front, got the dog in the back

We got the 8 track tape with Johnny Cash singin' "I'll walk the line"

And we're going down swingin' yeah'

[chorus]
