It's Going Down
Marock&Roll Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come on take it up again, lets go flying through the fields at night
And sleep all day
Moving through a hurricane without even spinning, I was sitting
There girl looking at you, smiling away to yourself
But don't get nostalgic for I am not a redneck, light a smoke and
I'll blow you off your feet tonight, tonight
We can kneel down and bow to the ancients, but I have no
Patience but tell your little story anyway, if it turns you on

Don't tell me no
Don't tell me no
Don't you tell me to tone it down

Come out and you can meet my friends they're a weird bunch but
I wouldn't have it any other way you know
I got to the end of the driveway still was a little bit scared because
You know the people out there are mighty strange, mighty strange
There was a man with a chainsaw drinking from the bottle, but the
Bottle got him in the end, so we rolled him down the valley and
We thought it was a pretty good finish for him
And if you listen hard you can hear the trees falling, hear her
Calling out to him and those kookaburras they go at it all day long
All day long
Don't tell me no

Don't tell me no
Don't you tell me to tone it down

Don't tell me no
Don't tell me no
Don't you tell me to tone it down

Come on take it up again, let's go flying through the fields at night
And sleep all day
Moving through a hurricane without even spinning, I was sitting
Their girl looking at you, smiling away to yourself
But don't get nostalgic for I am not a redneck, light a smoke and
I'll blow you off your feet tonight, tonight
Oh, we can kneel and bow to the ancients, but I have no patience
But tell your little story anyway, if it turns you on

Don't tell me no
Don't tell me no
Don't you tell me to tone it down

Don't tell me no




Don't tell me no
Don't you tell me to tone it down
