Lyrics
Do Downs
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh it ain't alright if you do downs, do downs, do downs
It ain't alright if you do downs, all the live long day
'Cause you'd wanna sleep all night, you'd wanna sleep all day
But I bet my money on a bag of reds, somebody do downs today
Try not to die, try not to die
Try not to die, not to die, not today
(c)1975 Horse Hairs Music
