All Tore Down

(album: Still Alive And Well - 1973)

Oww!
Slow down!!
You know I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down, yeah
I'm standing up tall
With my back flat on the ground

You know I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down, yeah
Somebody tell the world to stop
Or just slow down

You know I never had nobody
Don't fool around with me
And now here come the whole world's army
Kicking me in the teeth

That's why I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down, yeah
I'm standing up tall
With my back flat on the ground

You know I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down
All tore down
Somebody tell the world to stop
Or just slow down

Good God!
You know I went out to buy me a bottle
And try to soothe the pain
Before I left the cashier
He was hassling me about the change

That's why I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down, yeah
I'm standing up tall
With my back flat on the ground

Yeah, all tore down
I'm all tore down, yeah
Somebody tell the world to stop
Or just slow down

Slow down!

Yeah!

whoooo!
Uhh!

I went home to sip my supper
And have me a peaceful night
But there at home with her rollers on
Was my ranting raving wife

That's why I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down
I'm standing up tall
With my back flat on the ground

Wooh, I'm all tore down
I'm all tore down
Somebody tell the world to stop
Or just slow down

Do it!
Good God!
Huh!
