I woke up a new right way
and this is gonna be one of those days
The paper boy just gave me lip
And I can't get my jeans to zip
I ran out to catch my ride
The door slammed shut with keys inside
I could have sat right down and cried
But I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
I might lose my mind, I might carry on
But I don't stay down for long
I rushed home from work to make our day
You showed up three hours late
I asked you where you had been
You said you'd been out with a friend
You couldn't look me in the eye
Said save your breath, just say goodbye
I guess this just ain't my night
But I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
I might lose my mind, I might carry on
But I don't stay down for long
It's not a place that I wanna go
I scream and shout and I curse my luck
But I get back up and I've had enough
I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
I might lose my mind, I might carry on
But I don't stay down for long
Had a real good cry after you had left
Went out the next morning
Cause I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
Yeah, I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
Hey, I don't stay down for long
No, I don't stay down for long
Well, I don't stay down for long
