’m gonna go down town I’m gonna find myself some fun I’m gonna go down town, I’m gonna find myself someone Forget your hair forget your smell until there’s none I couldn’t bear to sit and stare until they’re gone I’m preying to gods I never need Saying I, I won’t go out quietly So I went down town and I found myself someone Without your hair without your smell without your love Found someone new to make me blue now that we’re done I couldn’t stay to watch you grey and fade away like everyone And now I’m preying to gods I never need Saying I, I won’t go out quietly I’m preying to gods I don’t believe Saying you, you won’t take me quietly Ma mama she gave me these lungs My papa he gave me this tongue Ma mama she gave me these lungs My papa he gave me this tongue So I went down town and I found myself someone Without your hair, without your smell without your love We’re only young for just this once and then we’re done I couldn’t stay to watch you grey but know I see your face in everyone I’m preying to gods I never need Saying I, I won’t go out quietly I’m preying to gods I don’t believe Saying please, won’t you bring her back to me
