Lyrics for Down Child

Listen downchild Please take a fool's advice Listen downchild Please take a fool's advice Don't newer let no one woman, Man misuse you twice time she smiles Says she don't love no one but you Everytime she smiles Says, she don't love no one but you Everytime she smiles Says, she don't love no one but you You better watch out buddy boy, little girl Love to drop a chunk on you I tried so hard to not even think about my past life I tried so hard even think about my past life Because I don't want to ever ever make a mistake in life Baby, I and you could be so happy We can be so lovin' tonight From now on darling Yeah, We can be so happy be so lovey from now on from now on Because if I ever make a mistake in life I know I'd ruin my happy home Whoa
