Down Came the World

Mel Tillis · Mr. Mel [Kapp] [1967]

(Waylon Jennings - Bozo Darnell)



Down, down, down came the world

I went 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round in a whirl

I built every dream around one girl

Then down, down, down came the world.



She must have loved a little

Just to keep me hanging on

How could lips that kiss so sweet

Lie and be so wrong.



Our love was just a pattern

Of the perfect boy and girl

Then down, down, down

Came the world.



Down, down, down came the world

I went 'round, 'round, 'round, 'round in a whirl

I built every dream around one girl

Then down, down, down came the world.



Then down, down, down came the world...
