It was a moonlight mishap You lost your party hat Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile after all A heavy-hearted taxi ride Then a walk on the wild side Did your guardian angel let you down? Gonna lay low and play it straight It's time to rejuvenate Gonna kick start your heart until you come around
I can tell you now; you've really gotten the blues I can tell you now; that I've walked in your shoes Gimme the sweet and lowdown
You better get outta the way It's history made the hard way From a hero to a zero once again Ain't no time for vanity Or this insanity You're maladjusted and now you're busted once again
I can tell you now; it comes as no surprise I can tell you now; by that look in your eyes Gimme the sweet and lowdown
You're looking kinda punch drunk Cuz that's the way you strut your stuff With a swing and a swagger down the road you go You shoulda made a better choice And listened to your inner voice You gotta get right or get left, don't ya know
I can tell you now; it's the peak of bad news I can tell you now; that I've walked in your shoes Gimme the sweet and lowdown The sweet and lowdown Gimme the sweet - the sweet and lowdown
