Down On Mission Street
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.
Some say that you may soon be leaving town
Do you tire of chasing all the women around
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't think twice
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard, down on mission street
God only knows how you can hurt her
When you know that's what you do
How does it feel to be so cruel
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't look back
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
It feels like up, down on mission street
Julie said your eyes are blue
Your lips are cold as stone
She picked you up and you put her down
And messed her place around
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't think twice
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard, down on mission street
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
It feels like up, down on mission street
