Gimme The Sweet And Lowdown - Social Distortion

It was a moonlight mishap

You lost your party hat

Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile after all

A heavy hearted taxi ride

Then a walk on the wild side

Did your guardian angel let you down

Gonna lay low and play it straight

It's time to rejuvenate

Gonna kick start your heart until you come around

I can tell you now you've really gotten the blues

I can tell you now that I've walked in your shoes

Gimme the sweet and lowdown

You better get outta the way

It's history made the hard way

From a hero to a zero once again

Ain't no time for vanity

Or this insanity

You're maladjusted and now you're busted once again

I can tell you now it comes as no surprise

I can tell you now by that look in your eyes

Gimme the sweet and lowdown

You're looking kinda punch drunk

Cuz that's the way you strut your stuff

With a swing and a swagger down the road you go

You shoulda made a better choice

And listened to your inner voice

You gotta get right or get left don't ya know

I can tell you now it's the peak of bad news

I can tell you now that I've walked in your shoes

Gimme the sweet and lowdown

The sweet and lowdown

Gimme the sweet

The sweet and lowdown
