Downtown

Five years old with a smile on my face
 Mommas in the kitchen
 Daddys playin' bass downtown
 Downtown
 Dad walks in says Sherry my girl we need to talk
 Remember that night with John boy
 Well you know I saw it all and I was scared for the first time
 Well then one thing led to another and left my mom down on the floor
 Dad said once you had everything but you chose to be a whore
 So we're gone, gone to the next town
 Oh my friends we were gone just like that
 Well it's been seventeen years since I've seen my mom
 Five years for my dad and I hear he's tryin' to get a job downtown yet again
 If it weren't for my grandad I wouldn't be standin here today
 All the years he spent pushin me sayin boy go on and do your thing downtown
 Make me proud son
 Oh and here I am I'm playin downtown
 Five years old with a smile on my face
 Mommas in the kitchen
 Daddys playin' bass downtown
