You tell lies thinking I can't see
You can't cry 'cos you're laughing at me
I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down.

Man buys ring woman throws it away
Same old thing happens everyday
I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down.

SOLO

We're all alone and there's nobody else
You still moan: "Keep your hands to yourself!"
I'm down (I'm really down)
Oh, babe, I'm down (Down on the ground)
I'm down (I'm really down)
How can you laugh when you know I'm down
(How can you laugh) When you know I'm down.

(Wow! Baby I'm down!)

Whoo, baaby!

Oh babe, you know that I'm down (I'm really down)
I guess I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down on the ground (I'm really down)
Whoa! Down! (I'm really down)
Oh, babe, I'm upside down
Oh yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, yeh, I'm down (I'm really down)
Oh, baby I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm feelin' upside down (I'm really down)
Ooh, I'm down (I'm really down)
Oh, baby I'm down, yeh
Oh, baby, I'm down, yeh!
Baby, I'm down (I'm really down)
Oh, baby I'm down (I'm really down)
Oh, baby, baby, baby! (I'm really down)
Oh, baby I'm down (I'm really down)
I'm down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, yeh whoa!
