Can’t Come Down (2024 Remaster)
[Verse 1]
I don't give a damn for money
Never did I give a damn for gold
Tell me, little doll, talk some sweet nothings
A river runs deep and cold
Don't know why, but it keeps running
Don't know why I can't come down
[Verse 2]
Moses, he stood on the mountain
Devil made it thunder and rain
Girl, I ain't afraid of temptation
No, I ain't afraid of some pain
Watch a little doll, she just come running
Running straight away
Bring it to me, I got sweet nothing
And only myself to blame
I don't know why I just keep running
Don't know why I can't come down
[Chorus]
Walk, don't you walk on me
Don't you step, don't you step on me
Don't you walk, don't walk on me
Don't you step on me
[Verse 3]
Don't need no thing for money
Got no jones for gold
All I got today is some sweet nothing
Nothing to take away
Don't know why I just keep running
Don't know why I can't come down
Don't know why somebody
Nobody hears today
Don't know why
Sweet nothing
Nothing to take away
[Outro]
No, I ain't afraid of temptation
No, I ain't afraid of somе pain
No, I ain't afraid of some pain
Somebody, somebody
Somеbody can't come down
Somebody can't come down
Can't come down
Somebody can't come down
Can't come down
Can't come down
Don't know why I can't come down
Ain't afraid of no pain
