Going Down Slow
Jimmy Witherspoon · Other Songs - Jimmy Witherspoon
In fact, things kings and queens can't never get.
And they don't even know about it.
And good times? mmm....
I have had my fun
If I never get well no more
I have had my fun
If I never get well no more
Whoa, my health is fadin'
Oh yeah, I'm goin' down slow.
Now looky here.
I did not say I was a millionare.
But I said I have spent more money than a millionare.
Cause if I had kept all of the money I had already spent,
I'd woulda been a millionare a long time ago.
And women? Well, great googly moogly.
Please write my mama
Tell her the shape I'm in
Please write my mama
Tell her the shape I'm in
Tell her pray for me
Forgive me for my sins
