Lyrics:

  • hard lessons for my meal last night
  • cold cruelty on my plate
  • a faithful heart & years on the side
  • it’s goin’ down with a bitter taste

  • it’s goin’ down . . it’s goin’ down
  • goin’ down like bread & water
  • can you hear? can you hear?
  • can you hear me when i cry?

  • no comfort in my bed last night
  • old man trouble on my head
  • same old singer . . brand new song
  • same old story . . brand new friend

  • it’s goin’ down . . it’s goin’ down
  • goin’ down like bread & water
  • can you hear? can you hear?
  • can you hear me when i cry?

  • oh the lion . . oh the lion
  • oh the lion . . help me lord!
  • can’t you hear me? can’t you hear me?
  • can’t you hear me callin‘ out?

  • hard numbers were my bread last night
  • hard travelin’ on my slate
  • it’s gettin’ hard to send it off
  • oh my friend take a look at my plate

  • it’s goin’ down . . it’s goin’ down
  • goin’ down like bread & water
  • can you hear? can you hear?
  • can you hear me when i cry?

  • oh the lion . . oh the lion
  • oh the lion . . help me lord!
  • can you hear me? can you hear me?
  • can you hear me callin‘ out?
  • oh the lion!
