Going Down Rocking

(T. J. White/L. White)



One foot on the mountain, the other one in the stream

All kinds of trouble and I'm caught in between

I can't change my way of doin'; it's gonna lay like it falls

If I can't go down rockin', I ain't gonna go down at all.



She was a child of acquired money, had that silver spoon

I knew she had a little wild streak and needed breathing room

If I can't be your sugar daddy, I won't be your Neanderthal

If I can't go down rockin', I ain't gonna go down at all.



Chorus:

Spent a little time in the congregation,

that's how I was raised

Spent a little time in trouble, but I do have my ways

Don't be your Neanderthal.



Tonight I had good intentions of crawling into bed

Resting my body and clearing my head

But, just about midnight, I got that telephone call

If I can't go down rockin', I ain't gonna go down at all.



Chorus:

Spent a little time in the congregation,

That's how I was raised

Spent a little time in trouble, but I do have my ways

If I can't go down rockin', I ain't gonna go down at all.



If I can't go down rockin', I ain't gonna go down at all...
