Print Version


He played guitar in a honky-tonk band
He drank Jack Daniels, black label brand
He was the life of the party
Till they closed down the bar
In the eyes of a young boy, he was a star

CHORUS:
HE'D SAY, "SON, DON'T YOU RUN DOWN THE ROADS THAT I'VE RUN
AND DON'T GO AND SING ALL THE SONGS THAT I'VE SUN
'CAUSE THIS KIND OF LIVIN' TAKES ITS TOLL ON A MAN
AND THROUGH THE SMOKE AND THE NEON I SAW IT FIRST HAND
I GOT THE LOWDOWN ON THE HIGHLIFE
BUST STILL HERE I AM."

The blues and the bottle held him under their spell
Took him to heaven and put us through hell
Well, sometimes I feel him up on this stage
His restless spirit
Still runs through my veins

REPEAT CHORUS

I got the lowdown on the highlife
But still here I am
Mmm. . .

Other James Otto song Lyrics
  • 1 Long Way Down
    "Sittin' in the seat of my old Olds
    Pretty city lights down far below
    Sittin' there soakin' up all of the heat of the fire
    You slide a little closer and whisper in my ear..."
  • 10 The Ball
    "If I hadn't dropped the ball, I would've took it all the way
    Homecoming '89 with ten seconds left to play
    We were drivin' toward the goal line, they were screamin' in the stands
    I had the chance to be a hero, but it slipped right through my hands..."
  • 12 Never Say Goodbye
    "Your bags are packed
    And your cab's out back
    Guess it's too late to change your mind
    But before you leave..."
  • 2 Gone
    "I wonder where she is tonight
    Is she alone or did she find
    What she needed from me
    I guess I got what I deserve..."
  • 3 Misspent Youth

    How great how great Your mercy is to us
    How great how great Your healing is to us
    How great the love the Father lavishes on us..."
  • 4 Miss Temptation
    "I pick up the phone that's ringin' inside my head
    It's your old familiar voice drippin' like honey
    Sayin', "C'mon, c'mon, let's tie one on
    Your know I can be there in a heartbeat, baby, if you're lonely."..."
  • 5 Sunday Morning And Saturday Night
    "My ol' man was a contradiction
    A real hard man to figure
    He'd read the King James Bible
    While sippin' on corn liquor..."
  • 6 Song Of The Violin
    "The last fifty years
    Have seen laughter and tears
    And your hair slowly fade to gray
    Your children are grown now..."
