lyrics

YOU LET ME DOWN


YOU LET ME DOWN
LORD WHEN THE NIGHT WAS SO BLACK AND COLD
YOU LET ME DOWN
LORD MAMA YOU WAS BOUGHT AND SOLD
YOU LET ME DOWN
BUT I AIN'T GOT NOTHING TO SELL
YOU LET ME DOWN
LORD MAMA YOU MY HEARTBREAK HOTEL

THEN YOU TURNED AROUND AND YOU SAID I'M WRONG
THAT I THAT I TREAT YOU SO BAD BABY
YOU KNOW IT AIN'T LIKE THAT
I SAID YOU'RE UNREAL BUT AH YOU SURE AIN'T NO DREAM AI-AH

WATCH THIS NOW

YOU LET ME DOWN
WE WALKED UNDER STAR-STUDDED SKY AT NIGHT
YOU LET ME DOWN
I COULD SEE IT COMING DEEP IN YOUR EYES
YOU LET ME DOWN
WHEN WE WALKED ALONG ARM IN ARM AT NIGHT YEAH
YOU LET ME DOWN
LORD YOU KICKED ME WITH SUCH A SURPRISE

THEN YOU TURNED AROUND AND YOU SAID I'M WRONG
THAT I THAT I TREAT YOU SO BAD BABY
YOU KNOW IT AIN'T LIKE THAT
I SAID YOU'RE UNREAL BUT YOU SURE AIN'T NO DREAM AI-AI-AI-AI-AH

DOWN DOWN BABY YOU LET ME DOWN
DOWN DOWN BABY YOU LET ME DOWN OH YEAH
DOWN DOWN BABY YOU LET ME DOWN OH MERCY
DOWN DOWN BABY YOU LET ME DOWN

YOU LET ME DOWN
I COULD SEE IT COMING DEEP IN YOUR EYES YEAH
YOU LET ME DOWN
LORD YOU KICKED ME WITH SUCH A SURPRISE YEAH
YOU LET ME DOWN
AS WE WALKED UNDER STAR-STUDDED SKY AT NIGHT
I SAID YOU LET ME DOWN OOH
YOU KICKED ME WITH SUCH A SURPRISE

THEN YOU TURNED AROUND AND YOU SAID I'M WRONG
THAT I THAT I TREAT YOU SO BAD BABY
YOU KNOW IT AIN'T LIKE THAT
I SAID YOU'RE UNREAL BUT YOU SURE AIN'T NO DREAM AH YEAH
