Goin' Down
The Pretty Reckless
Hey there, father
I don't want to bother you
But I've got a sin to confess
I'm just sixteen if you know what I mean
Do you mind if I take off my dress
I don't know where to start
So let me get to the good parts
You might want to cross up your legs
I've got envy I've got greed, anything that you need
And I'm not above having to beg
There was this boy who
Tore my heart in two
And I had to lay him eight feet under ground
All I need is someone to save me
Cus I am going down
What I need is someone to save me
Cus I am going' down
All the way down
Well, hey there, father
There is just one other thing
I have a simple request
I hear you know God
Could you give him a nod in my direction
I would be in your debt
Perhaps there is something that we could work out
I notice your breathing has starting to change
We could go in the back
Behind all these stacks of bibles
And get out of this cage
There was this boy who
Tore my heart in two
And I had to lay him eight feet under ground
All I need is someone to save me
Cus I am going down
What I need is someone to save me
Cus, God, I'm going' down
All the way down
I didn't wanna do it father
But I caught him with another woman in the bed
I made and so I put him in the grave and now
There's no one left around to get me off
When I want it's a drag
Next day on the television they identified him
By the circumsision that I made
And now I'm on the run but wait
Why did I have to go and kill him
When he was the best I ever had
All I need is someone to save me
Cus I am going down
What I need is something to save me
Cus, God, I'm going' down
All the way down
I'm going down
All the way down
