Lyrics for Down Don't Bother Me
I've been down so long You know, down don't bother me I've been down so long You know, down don't bother me I'm gonna take all my troubles And cast 'em in the deep, blue sea I work hard every day I come straight home at night And no matter how hard I try Y'know you never wanna treat me right I've been down so long You know, down don't bother me I'm gonna take all my worries And cast 'em in the deep, blue sea I bought you a nice coat for Christmas And a diamond ring And now you've got the nerve to tell me That my love don't mean a thing I've been down so long 'Til down don't bother me I'm gonna cast all my troubles And take 'em to the deep, blue sea _______________________________________________________ ALTERTNATIVE ADDITIONAL VERSES I work hard every day I come straight home at night And no matter how I try, I try You never wanna treat me right I've been down so long You know, down don't bother me I'm gonna cast all my worries And take 'em to the deep, blue sea
