Got one foot in front of the other
Got the wind at my back
Got the bluebird of happiness on my shoulder
Along with everything I could pack
Won't get me down
Won't get me down
Dig a hole, put me in the ground
Won't get me down
This old guitar done some livin'
And it's made a livin' for me
Well it's seen its share of barfights
And it's sat in the corner cryin' for me
Won't get it down
Won't get it down
If it never made another sound
Won't get it down
Wears my ring on her finger
We swore we'd always be true
There's no doubt I'd love to linger
Long after this whole world is through
Won't get us down
Won't get us down
Slander us all over town
Won't get us down
There's a man they call Jesus
And he did alot for me
Everything we do he sees us
Yeah he walks through eternity
Won't get him down
Won't get him down
Crucified with a thorny crown
Won't get him down
Won't get him down
Won't get him down
Someday he'll be back around
Won't get him down
