AMERICA - DON'T LET IT GET YOU DOWN lyrics

rate me

Written by Dewey Bunnell, ©1976

Found on Hideaway.

Somebody told me that the time was right

To keep on ridin' and to hang on tight

I heard the cry of a dog in the night

But nobody told me it would be all right

Don't let it get you down

But nobody make a sound

Don't let it get you down

We took a ride down a hill that night

The man was crazy but he wouldn't fight

With bullets in his back and money in a sack

We robbed a bank and we never looked back

Don't let it get you down

But nobody make a sound

Don't let it get you down

We took the bank, kept on runnin', but never too slow

The ride was fun and you know we went to Mexico

But the action that felt all right

Still haunts me in the night

We took the bank, kept on runnin', but never too slow

The ride was fun and you know we went to Mexico

But the action that felt all right

Still haunts me in the night, alright

Don't let it get you down

'Cause nobody made a sound

Don't let it get you down

They'll be lucky if we're ever found

Don't let it get you down (Don't let it get you down)

Don't let it get you down (Don't let it get you down)

Don't let it get you down (Don't let it get you down)

Don't let it get you down (Don't let it get you down) ...
