Lyrics
When they say they've come to shoot you
get down and down and down and down
When the music flows right through you
get down and down and down and down
Why don't you hear your mother there
yelling 'what's the matter'
you're down and down and down and down
You're waiting on the kisses
that always make it better
you're down and down and down and down
When the funnel blows right to you
get down and down and down and down
when the holy spirit moves you
get down and down and down and down
and when you hear the weatherman cursing at the weather
you're down and down and down and down
but wading in the water
will only make you wetter
you're down and down and down and down
I remember days
whenever I'd hear your voice
I'd get so carried away
I tell ya it wasn't wise
I knew then but too late,
I adored you
whatever way
it went down it may
leave me cryin' and singing and playin piano-o
but when you hear the weatherman
talking up the weather
get down and down and down and down
He's waiting on the kisses
that always make it better
get down and down and down and down
I could see a time
in order to hear your voice
I would stop
turn on a dime
and offer a joyful noise
I could name the ways
that I adore you
but anyway
I did yesterday
now I'm crying and singing and playing piano-o
but when you see the weatherman
clearing up the weather
get down and down and down and down
You're waiting on the kisses
that always make it better
get down and down and down and down
And when you see your mother there
yelling 'what's the matter'
get down and down and down and down
Cuz walking on the water
will always make you wetter
get down and down and down and down
