Bound to Get Down Songtext
von Mac McAnally

Well, I was born in trouble
Hey, but that′s just me
If you ain't in trouble friend
You′re about to be
It's a force of nature
Ain't something you get to choose
′Cause in the course of living
You′re bound to get down to the blues

Some people run hog wild
Some people walk the line
Some never do nothing
Hey, it takes all kinds
And it don't really matter
Here′s some late breaking news
In the course of living
You're bound to get down to the blues


Bound to get down
You′re bound to get down
Sooner or later, no way around
Everybody gets down
To the blues

You might seem so happy
Not at all depressed
And be a pharmacological guinea pig mess
Who don't remember how you came upon that route
But in the course of living
You′re bound to get down to the blues

Well, sick man smiling
Healthy man cries
Poor man borrows and a wealthy man buys
And the more you're winning
The more that you have to lose
'Cause in the course of living
You′re bound to get down to the blues

You′re bound to get down
Bound to get down
Sooner or later, no way around
Everybody gets down
To the blues


Well, I was born in trouble
Hey, but that's just me
And if you ain′t in trouble
Get prepared to be

Bound to get down
You're bound to get down
Bound to get down
Sooner or later, no way around
Everybody gets down
To the blues
To the blues
