Woman Down

(album: Carly Pearce - 2020)

Woman down, down on her luck
There goes the man, there goes the plan, there goes the truck
Woman down, down to one prayer
God get me through it for the two asleep upstairs
She can't breathe, but she ain't dying
And there ain't no time for crying
There's a phoenix down inside when
Her feet are to the fire

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawling
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down
A woman down

A woman down don't stay down long
Can't come unglued, yeah, she's got too much going on
If she's out of land, she'll find a boat
Can't find a hand, she'll find some rope
All out of heart, she'll find some hope
Where you swear it can't be found

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawling
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down
A woman down, a woman down

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?
Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
Been to hell and back, up against the wall, then
Gets knocked down but ain't afraid of crawling
Who's your money on, who's your money on?
She can make a mountain move
And do it in her high heeled shoes
If she ain't back up yet, just stick around
You can't keep a woman down

Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna bet on when the sky is fallin'?
A woman down
Who you gonna call on when the Devil's callin'?
