"Goin' Down Rocking" lyrics - WHITEY MORGAN AND THE 78'S

One foot on the mountain
The other in the stream
All kinds of trouble
And I'm caught in between
I can't change my way of doin'
It's gonna lay like it falls
And if I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all

She was a child of acquired money
Liked that silver spoon
I knew she had a little wild streak
Needed breathin' room
I can't be your sugar daddy
Won't be your Neanderthal
And If I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all
And If I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all

Well, tonight I had intentions
Of crawling into bed
Restin' my body to clear my weary head
Oh, but just about midnight, I always get that call
And If I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all
Said if I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all

Spent a little time in the congregation
That's how I was raised
Spent a little time in trouble
Don't you know I got my ways
Spent a little time in the congregation
That's how I was raised
Spent a little time in trouble
Don't you know I got my ways

Yeah, won't be your Neanderthal
Well, I'm gonna lay where I fall
(That's right, come on!)
And If I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all
Said, if I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all

[Instrumental bridge]

And if I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all
Said, if I can't go down rockin'
I ain't gonna go down at all
