Gimme The Sweet And Lowdown

Was a moonlight mishap, you lost your pony hat
Seems your lifestyle ain't so worthwhile after all
A heavy-hearted taxi ride and 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 and 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 out the way, it's history made the hard way
From a hero to a zero once again
Ain't no time for vanity, oh, this insanity
You're now adjusted and now you're busted once again

I can tell you now because there's no surprise
I can tell you now by that look in your eyes
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

You're looking for a cart truck, is that so why you strut your stuff?
Whether swinging or swagging down the road you go
You should've made a better choice, listen to your inner voice
You gotta get a ride or get left, don't you know?

I can tell you now, it's the good or bad news
I can tell you now that I walk in your shoes
Gimme the sweet and lowdown

The sweet and lowdown
Gimme the sweet, sweet and lowdown
