I'm Down - Jack White

I'm down

I'm down and this town is a nuisance

It put my backbone all in a ruin

And with the area code of a truant

I'm fluent in the hazards of love

Yeah listen

I fed a warrant to a billy goat

I fixed the spelling on a suicide note

I get well card from my holy ghost

To a beggar who smells like a rose

I'm down

I'm down and I fell like a loner

There's a skyscraper city below her

I wanna feed my heart to a cobra

'Cause nothing ever happens to me

Alright

Like a blessing disguised as a curse

Like a sermon that's runs out of words

Like a cage that can't keep any birds

I can't keep my arms around you

I'm down

I'm down

I'm down and this town is a backdrop

A back road over a roadblock

With a debutante in a tank top

Who's teaching me how to be free

Oh look

Like a prayer in a personal ad

Like a knife in a broken back

Learn to love what you can't get rid of

Before it gets rid of you

I'm down

I'm down

I'm down

I'm down
