Sturgill Simpson
Letting Me Down
[Verse 1]
School was done and you were gone so fast
Gave up everything that couldn't last
Borrowed money that you never paid back
And left a hole in this town

[Verse 2]
They don't make 'em like you no more
Your mama's working at the liquor store
We don't talk about it anymore
And you don't come around

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's lonely
Oh, babe, just look around

[Chorus]
You got a way (Of letting me down)
You got a way (Of letting me down)
Of letting me down

[Verse 3]
You were in another dream I had
Still runnin' from your deadbeat dad
I had a feeling it would turn out bad
And I never woke up
[Verse 4]
Bad luck, you know it don't come cheap (Ah)
But shit changes, baby, nothing's concrete (Ah)
A full moon above an empty street
I only wanted your love

[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody's lonely
Oh, babe, just look around
Everybody's lonely
Oh babe, just look around

[Chorus]
You got a way (Of letting me down)
You got a way (Of letting me down)
Oh, you got a way, way, way
Of letting me down (Of letting me down)

[Outro]
You keep letting me down (Letting me down)
Letting me down, down, down, down, down
