Lyrics
I’ve been up;
I’ve been down.
Take my word, as my way ’round.
I ain’t ask ing for much.
I said, Lord, take me down town.
I’m just look ing for some (G)tush.
I’ve been bad;
I’ve been good,
Dal las, Tex as Hol ly wood.
I ain’t ask ing for much.
I said, Lord, take me down town.
I’m just look ing for some (G)tush.
Take me back, (G)tush.
