All The Way Down - Etta James

Out on the street

The summer heat

Boys playing games

Changing their names

Pulling tricks

Getting their kicks

All the way down

Let it ride

Meetin the stars

In funky bars

Shiny new cars

And back door lies

Trying to hike

Or any other type of ride

All the way down

Let it ride

Trying everythang now

Gotta check it out

Trying everythang now

Gotta check it out

Hey girl!

You want a blow?

Why not?

I got no where to go

Benny the Albino

Says don’t be a whino

Try these here flakes

They got what it takes

To make you a star

And change who you are

All the way down

Let it ride

Tell me were you satisfied?

Did you mix it?

Did you like it?

Oooh!

Tell me was it good to you

I wanna know did you make enough money?

Did you make enough money to go down in style?

Or did you find yourself just dying, dying, dying, dying, after a while?

Got to get off!

Got to get off!

I got to, got to, got to, got to, got to get off!

Please help me, help me!

To git off now, now!

Before I freeze, and before I can come up off my knees

And lose my key to freedom

And I go, All the way down, All the way down
