Lyrics for Down

You hit me one time, imagine my surprise You hit me two times, you got yourself a fight I was a patsy, you were a creep from the cheap seats Thinking that my little scratch was like your big victory See, but I'll take you down, uh-huh Tell me who hurt you, no, wait, I don't care to Hear an excuse why you think you can be cruel (cruel, cruel, cruel) Mama always told me (my mama told me) You got to turn the other cheek (my mama told me) But even she would agree you're an exception to that rule (rule, rule, rule) I'll take you, yeah, I'll take you I'll take you (come on) I'll take you down (I'll take you down, down, down, down) I'll take you down (I'll take you down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down) Go get your own shit, get off of my tit Go face your demons, check into treatment Go flee the country, go blame your daddy Just get far away from me 'Cause I'll take you down (I'll take you down, down, down, down) Ah, 'cause I'll take you down (I'll take you down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down) (I'll take you down) Go tell your friends Go tell your friends you're down Run to your friends If you got any, they left you down Oh-oh-oh, go tell your friends Go tell your friends you're down Oh-oh-oh, run to your friends (woo) If you got any, they left you down
