Story Behind The Song

Many of us have been through these types of relationships before and can relate to these problems regarding a love partner. I derived my inspiration to write this song through personal experiences and relationships gone sour.

Down I Go lyrics

[Verse]
She's my hardheaded woman; I see trouble in her eyes, gettin hot and sexy with a friend of mine.
In a town full of music drownin in my fears, I'm trading in the drama for a night chuggin beers...

[Chorus]
Down I go, down I go, down that rabbit hole she made for me; Down I go, down I go, no one knows where the hell I'm goin but me...I need freedom...cuz she gets to me.

[Verse]
She wagered on love, but her heart grew cold; The last ace is showin', and I'm gonna fold.
Wavin' goodbye to the love that died; You won't hear me sayin' I enjoyed the ride.
There's somethin woman that you oughta know; alarm bells are ringin tellin' me to go.
Not cryin' in my beer, but ya know what I'm sayin'; I think I'm goin' down with the game she's playin.

[Chorus]
Down I go, down I go, down that rabbit hole she made for me; Down I go, down I go, no one knows where the hell I'm goin but me...I need freedom...cuz she gets to me...she gets to me!

[Verse]
Screaming through the screen door, stompin on the porch floor, she gets so angry she's spits.
But when the dust settles, she's not winning any medals, a loser if the shoe fits.
I'll find a good woman, who loves me true; rockin her world if she wants me to.
So, I'm splittin this town with my finger on a map. My pedal's to the metal and I ain't lookin back.

[Chorus]
Down I go, down I go, down that rabbit hole she made for me; Down I go, down I go, no one knows where the hell I'm goin but me...I need freedom...cuz she gets to me.

[Bridge]
In a town full of music drowning in my fears, I'm trading in the drama for a night chuggin beers...

[Chorus]
Down I go, down I go, down that rabbit hole she made for me; Down I go, down I go, no one knows where the hell I'm goin but me...I need freedom...cuz she gets to meeeee, she gets to meeeeee.
