Aint Going Down This Time
White Tony Joe
Intro: Verse I ?ve been layin? low - livin? in the shadows Spendin? time alone - conversations with the wall Hangin? on I?m just tryin? to matter And I remain tryin? to make some sense of it all I ?ve been here before I?m familiar with the pain But I ain?t runnin? no more there?s one thing changed (-stop-) Ain?t goin? down this time This time I ain?t goin? down Verse Like an undertow - I feel the promis of the nighttime But I?ve been down that road - and my search came to an end I hit the motherload Enough blues for a lifetime Now I?m digging deep inside tryin? to find my way back again You know you?ve entered the danger zone When you look in the eyes and there?s no one home (-stop-) Ain?t goin? down this time This time I ain?t goin? down Solo Em >E Verse Deep in the night - I miss a woman?s touch The fire burns strong - and I?m drawn to the flame But I pay the price When I get caught up in the heartbeat And passion flows - un-res-trained No one left to blame - I?m faced with the truth And it?s all too plain - when there?s nothing left to lose (-stop-) Ain?t goin? down this time This time I ain?t goin? down Outro Solo Em >E
