Downtown by The Cactus Blossoms Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I see people on the street and I wonder
If they know what's under their feet or hear the thunder
The rich are getting way too high
Even try to scrape the sky
Why, oh why can't you and I?

[Chorus]
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown

[Verse 2]
Try getting by on minimum wage, I dare you
American slaves in the modern age, it should scare you
Trouble knocking on the door
You're used to it if you were poor
Tables have been turned before

[Chorus]
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I need to look into your eyes just to feel you
No need to dress up to the nines, I want the real you
Guess you never had to do
Anything you don't wanna do
It must be nice to live like you

[Chorus]
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown
I'm gonna bring you down
I'm gonna bring you downtown

[Outro]
I'm gonna bring you downtown
I'm gonna bring you downtown
I'm gonna bring you downtown
