lyrics

Good Man Down

Life, it's a funny thing
Sometimes makes you want to cry, sometimes makes you want to sing
Glass half full is the way that I think,
Unless I find somebody to, get me another drink

There's misery and misfortune
Unfolding every day
Whenever I start falling, I…
…get back up and say:

You can’t keep a good man down
You can drag my name, all over town
You can steal my car, set fire to my guitar
But you'll never keep a good man down

Some folks do complain all the time
It's difficult to navigate through all the muck and slime
Trying hard to find the reason why?
Cause life is tough, and eventually you die

There's misery and misfortune
Unfolding every day
Whenever I start falling, I…
…get back up and say:

You can’t keep a good man down
You can drag my name, all over town
You can steal my car, set fire to my guitar
But you'll never keep a good man down

You don't like what you're doing or where you work
Everything is rubbish and everyone's a jerk
Always a better option you could find
But if you want to change you'd need to get off your behind

There's misery and misfortune
Unfolding every day
Whenever I start falling, I…
…get back up and say:

You can’t keep a good man down
You can drag my name, all over town
You can steal my car, set fire to my guitar
But you'll never keep a good man down
