Good Man Down Lyrics

Hunters & Collectors Good Man Down

One more day in the sun
You're halfway to hardly begun
There was something more you needed to say
But your mind goes drifting away

All the little kingdoms have come
Other peoples' children are fun
You're everybody's uncle to them
It's time to run for cover again
All the joy you tasted
All the love you wasted

I know, you can't keep a good man down
You're a legend on the town
It's tragic to see
You can't keep a good man down

Creatures of the night on your mind
Are calling "don't leave us behind"
But you can't go back over that
Got to hide it under your hat
Every weekend lover
Is bound to run for cover

I know, you can't keep a good man down
You're a legend on the town
It's tragic to see
You can't keep a good man down

Oh no, you forgot to show
She's waiting on the corner
Yeah, yeah - couldn't take you anywhere
You're a two pot talker
You're helpless when you hold her
You can't keep a good man down.

I know, you can't keep a good man down
You're a legend on the town
It's tragic to see
You can't keep a good man down

You're a legend on the town
But you can't keep a good man down

You can't keep a good man down
I know, you can't keep a good man down
Never keep a good man down

I know, you can't keep a good man down
