Waylon Jennings - Down Came The World Lyrics

Down, down, down came the world
I went round, round, round in a whirl
I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world.

She must have loved a little
Just to keep me hanging on
How could lips that kiss so sweet
Lie and be so wrong?

Our love was just a pattern
Of the perfect boy and girl
The only dream I own
In this world.

Down, down, down came the world
I went round, round, round in a whirl
I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world.

[Instrumental]

I built every dream around one girl
Then down, down, down came the world
Down, down, down came the world...
