Live It Down

(Album: You Hear Georgia - 2021)

Feel like I start swinging
Soon as my two feet hit the floor
The hands of time keep spinning
Everybody knocking down my door
Ya know I get a little nervous
When my telephone starts to ring
Ol' credit man keeps calling
He ain't getting a goddamn thing

I can't make the wheels roll
With your first check in the hole
I wish I could click my heels
And jump on the golden road
I'd be walking
Yes, I would

There's gonna come a day
You will hear me say

Oh, give me all that I can carry
Oh, said it's cheaper by the pound
Oh, come on, baby, doncha worry
Let's live it up till we can't live it down
Can't live it down

Reaching up from the bottom
I tell ya it's a bitch
It's a helluva thing to break your back
Just to make another man rich

Ain't no pie in the sky
When you're barely getting by
Every day's on layaway
And it's trying to bleed me dry
Got me running
Yes, I am

Honey, fill my cup
Yeah, we gonna live it up

Oh, give me all that I can carry
Oh, said it's cheaper by the pound
Oh, come on, baby, doncha worry
Let's live it up till we can't live it down

Let it loose mama
I can see that ship coming in
Let it loose mama
Yeah, we gonna get down again, gonna get down

Oh, give me all that I can carry
Oh, said it's cheaper by the pound
Oh, come on, baby, doncha worry
Let's live it up till we can't live it down
Can't live it down
Can't live it down
