She Goes Down Songtext
von Alex Dezen

She′s high up on that ferris wheel
Counting stars between the deals
Her neck is wrapped in cellophane
Just initials, not the name
Some tattoos come with funny stories like that

The poets call it bittersweet
And others call her frequently
The bruises hide under the jeans
With the lights out no one sees
Her body's got a hundred stories like that

But when she′s all alone she's Marilyn Monroe
Waiting for Joe DiMaggio
To come and take her home...

When she falls in love she goes down but don't feel nothin′
She falls in love and hits the ground
When she falls in love she goes down but don′t feel nothin'
Girls like that don′t fall in love
They just hit the ground, hit the ground
They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground


She'll kick it any time she wants
She ain′t no junkie dilettante
Her father was a minister
Who stood a little close to her
But I guess we all got funny stories like that

But when she's all alone she′s Marilyn Monroe
Waiting for Joe DiMaggio
To come and take her home...

When she falls in love she goes down but don't feel nothin'
She falls in love and hits the ground
When she falls in love she goes down but don′t feel nothin′
Girls like that don't fall in love
They just hit the ground, hit the ground
They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground

She′s high up on that ferris wheel
But this time she can't seal the deal
She only needs it one more time
After that, she′ll be alright
But I just can't think of any story like that


When she falls in love she goes down but don′t feel nothin'
She falls in love and hits the ground
When she falls in love she goes down but don't feel nothin′
Girls like that don′t fall in love
They just hit the ground, hit the ground
They just hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground
When she falls in love she goes down...
When she falls in love she goes down...
When she falls in love she goes down but don't feel nothin′
Girls like that don't fall in love
They just hit the ground
