Lyrics
Goin' Down
words and music by Jane Held
Goin' Down, to see my baby tonight
Goin' Down, to see my baby tonight
I got the moon on my shoulder
I got the stars above
You got me in love
Goin' Down, to see my baby tonight
(baby baby, ba-b-baby)
Goin' down, to see my baby tonight
(baby baby, ba-b-baby)
I got some time in my pocket
I got love at hand
Ooh lookout man, you know that
I get up in the morning
I get up on a dime
I get up thinkin' how I'm
Gonna make some time
To go down, to see my sugar tonight
(sug- sugar, sug-sugar)
Goin' Down... to get some sugar tonight
(sug-sugar, sug-sugar)
I got a hard hearty appetite I can't deny
My oh my oh My
Goin' Down?to see my baby tonight
Goin' Down?to see my baby tonight
1981 Jane Held
