"Long Way Down" lyrics

Got a silver El Dorado sittin' just outside the door
Burn a little rubber if you put her to the floor
Times are getting tough, you don't run much anymore
Look out, son, it's a long way down

Girls all used to love me, I was all the rage, you see
'Til my lofty disposition finally got the best of me
Now I sit here in the evening, 'lone as I can be
Look out, son, it's a long way down

Ain't no sitting on the fence
When it comes to truth or consequence
There's just some things there's no way around
It's a long way down

Never mind the beagles, you are talkin' to a man
Who has lived a whole lot longer than anybody planned
As I stand right here before you with the past at my command
Look out, son, it's a long way down
Look out, son, it's a long way down
Look out, son, it's a long way down
