Eyes Down

Well the sun is shinin'
But it don't feel good
Don't smile down on this neighborhood
When I go walkin' through this stinkn' town
Mister, I keep my eyes down
The brotherhood of the misunderstood
Live and die here in all likelihood
You're livin' in this town
But I pray for sundown
And baby when you go downtown
You keep your eyes down
You keep your eyes down
You keep your eyes down
You keep your eyes down
Fair weather friends need not apply
The man of the house is not inside
Baby I'm keepin' my eyes down
Go with the flow
Well you got to be sick
Think i'd rather hear my heart not tick
But if you don't want wear a hospital gown
Better get out now or keep your eyes down
Fair weather friends need not apply
The man of the house is not inside
Baby I'm keepn' my eyes down
Well the sun is shinin'
But it don't feel good
Don't smile down on this neighborhood
When I go walkin' through this stinkn' town
Mister, I keep my eyes down
Well the sun is shinin'
But it don't feel good
(i keep my eyes down)
Don't smile down on this neighborhood
(i keep my eyes down)
When i go walkin' through this stinkn' town
(i keep my eyes down)
Mister, I keep my eyes
(i keep my eyes down)
