I`ll Go on Downtown — текст песни (Robert Earl Keen)

I`ve got clothes in my closet and new shoes to wear
And all that I wanted are more than my share
And the woman who loves me she`s more than a dream
So why am I feeling so low down and mean?

Well I gave up on smokin` two years ago
And I ain`t been drinkin` for a month now or so
And I tell everybody that I`ve nothin` to hide
While I keep the devil locked deep down inside

Chorus:
And tonight I`ll be out there a runnin` around
Tonight by the light of the moon on the ground
Tonight while the neighbors are sleepin` so sound
Tonight I`ll slip off and I`ll go on downtown

We used to get crazy and jump in our cars
We`d burn up the highways and we`d close down the bars
But now we`re all married and some moved away
And we get together there`s nothing to say

Chorus

The lights are all down and the moon`s hangin` high
And the stars are all shining way up in the sky
And if anyone`s askin` where I`ll be found
It`s home in the mornin` but tonight I`m downtown
