Good Girl Down Songtext
von Wanda Jackson

When you kissed me the other night
It was my first taste of wine
When I woke up this morning
You were still on my mind
There′s a bittersweet flavor hangin' on my tongue
You haven′t called me, so honey, I'm done
Ain't gonna hang around
For you to break my heart

′Cause you can′t get a good girl down
You can't get a good girl down
(Down, down, down, down, down)
She′s got no secrets and she's got no lies
She′ll burn you out with the truth in her eyes
She's standin′ on solid ground
You can't get a good girl down


Not just a pretty face
Not a flower in a vase
It's a man′s world, and I′m a lady
And they'll never appreciate me
They don′t take the time to get to know who I am
Frankly, boys, I don't give a damn
Got my head on straight
Yeah, yeah, yeah

You can′t get a good girl down
You can't get a good girl down
(Down, down, down, down, down)
She′s got no secrets and she's got no lies
She'll burn you out with the truth in her eyes
She′s standin′ on solid ground
You can't get a good girl down

Not gonna sit around, not gonna pine
There′ll be no tears fallin' from these eyes
(From these eyes)
I′ll put on my makeup, do up my hair
Walk real tall and let 'em all stare


You can′t get a good girl down
You can't get a good girl down
(Down, down, down, down, down)
She's got no secrets and she′s got no lies
She′ll burn you out with the truth in her eyes
She's standin′ on solid ground
You can't get a good girl down
Can′t get a good girl down
You can't get a good girl down
(Down, down, down, down, down)
She′s got no secrets and she's got no lies
She'll burn you out with the fire in her eyes
She′s standin′ on solid ground
You can't get a good girl down

Can′t get a good girl down
Can't get a good girl down
Can′t get a good girl, can't get a good girl down
Can′t get a good girl down
