Gimme The Sweet And Lowdown Lyrics - Hard Times And Nursery Rhymes - Social Distortion

Was a moonlight mishap, you lost your pony hat 

Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile after all 

A heavy-hearted taxi ride and a walk on the wild side 

Did your guardian angel let you down? 

Gonna lay low and play it straight, it's time to rejuvenate 

Gonna kick start your heart and come around 

I can tell you now, you've really gotten the blues 

I can tell you now that I've walked in your shoes 

Gimme the sweet and lowdown 

You better get out the way, it's history made the hard way 

From a hero to a zero once again 

Ain't no time for vanity, oh, this insanity 

You're now adjusted and now you're busted once again 

I can tell you now because there's no surprise 

I can tell you now by that look in your eyes 

Gimme the sweet and lowdown 

You're looking for a cart truck, is that so why you strut your stuff? 

Whether swinging or swagging down the road you go 

You should've made a better choice, listen to your inner voice 

You gotta get a ride or get left, don't you know? 

I can tell you now, it's the good or bad news 

I can tell you now that I walk in your shoes 

Gimme the sweet and lowdown 

The sweet and lowdown 

Gimme the sweet, sweet and lowdown
