I'll Go On Downtown Lyrics - Keen Robert Earl

I've got clothes in my closet and new shoes to wear 

And all that I wanted are more than my share 

And the woman who loves me she's more than a dream 

So why am I feeling so low down and mean? 

Well I gave up on smokin' two years ago 

And I ain't been drinkin' for a month now or so 

And I tell everybody that I've nothin' to hide 

While I keep the devil locked deep down inside 

Chorus: 

And tonight I'll be out there a runnin' around 

Tonight by the light of the moon on the ground 

Tonight while the neighbors are sleepin' so sound 

Tonight I'll slip off and I'll go on downtown 

We used to get crazy and jump in our cars 

We'd burn up the highways and we'd close down the bars 

But now we're all married and some moved away 

And we get together there's nothing to say 

Chorus 

The lights are all down and the moon's hangin' high 

And the stars are all shining way up in the sky 

And if anyone's askin' where I'll be found 

It's home in the mornin' but tonight I'm downtown 

Chorus x2
