(Intro: E)

E
One foot on the mountain
And the other one in the stream
All kind of trouble
And I'm caught in between

         A
I can't change my way of doin'
                       E
It's gonna lay like it falls
            B7 
'Cause if I can't go down rockin'
A7                   E
Ain't goin' down at all

E
She was a child of acquired money
Had that silver spoon
I knew she had a little wild streak
Needed breathin' room

        A   
I can't be your sugar daddy
                       E
I won't be your Neanderthal
            B7
'Cause if I can't go down rockin'
A7                   E
Ain't goin' down at all, no, no

E
Tonight I had good intentions
Of crawling into bed
Resting my body
And clearing out my head

A
Just about midnight
                     E
I got that telephone call
             B7
'Cause if I can't go down rockin'
A7                    E
I ain't goin' down at all
I won't be your Neanderthal
      B7
If I can't go down rockin'
A7                  E
Ain't goin' down at all
