Draggin' Me Down Songtext
von Phil Shöenfelt & Southern Cross

What did you do?
The world is so down on you
For the seeds that you sow
Of trouble and woe
And I look into your eyes
For the beauty that hides
And the love that you gain
Between pleasure and pain
Oh my darlin′
I reached out my hand to you
But you pushed me down to my knees
Tell me, please


What did you do?
Your eyes are so blackened
And so blue
With all the tears that flow
So much trouble and woe
And that poison you threw
Is all coming back onto you
Now you're losing the game
Between pleasure and pain
You need somebody to blame
Oh my darlin′
May all the bells in heaven's kingdom
Ring for you
You stole the lock
You stole the key
Can't you see?

You′re draggin′ me down
You're draggin′ me down
Like a hole in the ground
Why you draggin' me down?


What did you do?
Why′s this hoodoo keep on following you?
Cold and twisted and unkind
Like a knife from behind
And I'm so sad that it′s this way
But I can't stand
The things you do or say
You're the ruler
You′re the queen - yeah, yeah
I′m bowing out of your scene
I'm bowing out of your scene
Oh sweet darlin′
Please don't bring your troubles
To my doorstep anymore
You stole the lock
You stole the key
Can′t you see?

You're draggin′ me down
You're draggin' me down
Like a hole in the ground
Why you draggin′ me down?
Why you draggin′ me down?
