歌手名 The Monkees

Sock it to me

Floating down the river

With a saturated liver

And I wish I could forgive her

But I do believe she meant it

When she told me to forget it

And I bet she will regret it

When they find me in the morning wet and drowned

And the word gets ' round

Going down

Going down

Coming' up for air

It' s pretty stuffy under there

I' d like to say I didn' t care

But I forgot to leave a note

And it' s so hard to stay afloat

I' m soaking wet without a boat

And I knew I should have taken off my shoes

It' s front page news

Going down

Going down

I wish I had another drink

It wouldn' t be so hard to sink

I should have taken time to think

Besides I got the picture straight

She must have had another date

I didn' t need this extra weight

I wish that I could see the way to shore

Don' t want no more

Going down

I' m going down

And now I see the life I led

I slept it all away in bed

I should have learned to swim instead

And now it' s really got me stumped

I can' t believe why I jumped

I' d like to get my tummy pumped

I can' t believe they drink this stuff in town

This dirty brown

Going down

Going down

I wish I looked before I leaped

I didn' t know it was so deep

Been down so far I don' t get wet

Haven' t touched the bottom yet

This river scene is getting old

I' m hungry sleepy wet and cold

She told me to forget it nice

I should have taken her advice

I only want to go on home

I' d gladly leave that girl alone

What a way to spend the night

If I don' t drown I' ll die of fright

My pappy taught me how to float

But I can' t swim a single note

He threw me in to teach me how

I stayed there floating like a mama cow

And now I' ve floated way down stream

I know this has to be a dream

If I could find my way to shore

I' d never never do this anymore

I' ll give you three I' ve been down nine

I' m going down just one more time

Going down

Going down

Now the sky is getting light

An everything will be alright

Think I finally got the knack

Just floating here lazy on my back

I never really liked that town

I think I' ll ride the river down

Just moving slow and floating free

There' s a river swinging under me

Waving back to the folks on shore

I should have thought of this before

I' m floating on down to New Orleans

Going to pick up on some swinging scenes

I know I' ll know a better day

I' ll go down grooving all the way

Going down

Going down

Going down

Going down

Going down
