Elliot Smith – Don't Go Down lyrics

Album: From A Basement On The Hill

I met a girl
Snowball in hell
She's as hard
And as cracked as a liberty bell
And I got her to
Come on and move in with me
And I said I'll find a better place
Where we can spend eternity
Don't go down
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
Her mama called me a thief
And her dad
Called himself commander and chief
I fought him off with my love
But I knew the sense of worthlessness she would have to rise above
Don't go down
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
Don't go down
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
She had a dream
Woke up in shock
She had seen
Her own body outlined in chalk
And I split the scene
The globe had been spun
And her ghost beamed down to kiss me
With a message from the sun
Don't go down
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
Don't go down
Stay with me, baby stay
