Go Down Singin’

Took a couple blows on Broadway

Cause I heard thats what you do

Left blood and sweat and tears up and down 16th avenue

Between the Son you just aint got its and the barely making rent

I just smiled and took it on the chin

And I did my best

I went for broke

Breathed in every drop of neon covered honky tonk bar smoke

When this town did its worst

I just smiled and said bring it

Said if I go down hell at least I go down singin

Signed a couple sheets of paper and finally thought Id won

Turns out Id sign a couple more and tell em I was done

But a phone call home to momma

Gets your back up off the ropes

Put my boots back on called up the boys

And we all hit the road

And I did my best

I went for broke

Breathed in every drop of neon covered honky tonk bar smoke

When this town did its worst

I just smiled and said bring it

Said if I go down hell at least I go down singin oh

I go down singin oh

Got asked the other day by a kid with dreams to chase

Said what's it really take

I told him make sure you can say

I did my best

I went for broke

Breathe in every drop of neon covered honky tonk bar smoke

When this town does its worst

Make sure you smile and say bring it

And if you go down at least you go down singin

If you go down make damn sure

You go down singin oh

Go down singin
