B.T.O. (Bachman-Turner Overdrive) - Down, Down Lyrics






When the mornin' comes
You'll know by my shoes I've been out walking

If I don't return
You'll know I've found something to believe in, to believe in

Waiting for the sun
My heart will surely break if it starts raining

It's the oasis I seek
'Cause the sand of the desert makes me thirsty, makes me thirsty

Down, down we all go down
'Round, 'round we all go 'round
Down, down we all go down
We all go down-down-down-down

If I learn to fly
You know I'll go places never been before

If I reach a star
You know I will dwell on it forever, forever

There are mysteries
My children have rhymes with hidden meanings

If I learn the truth
I'm sure that the end will leave me crying, leave me crying

    The song is a classic rock from 1977 but at 1993 i listened at the radio on weekends

  18. R.... S....

    I think this one is pretty good. Catchy tune.

  19. a.... ....

    This is one of their greatest tracks IMHO. The verse is just so gnarly but melodic and I love that harmonised solo/interlude.

  20. M.... A....

    This very underated song takes me back to the summer of 1977. Driving around in Tommy Buchanan's 64 Chevy. Always drinking Old Style beer and looking for chicks. Me, Tommy and Bleecker. A much simpler life. Wouldn't trade those days for anything! We all all go Down!

    C.... W....

    After reading your post I flashed back to summer of 81 riding around my chevelle me and harold and our girlfriends. I'm with wouldn't trade those days for anything

    C.... W....

    Amen Brother. A slower, simpler time when people treated each other with dignity and respect.

    C.... W....

    @Carl Weaver Brother I have never heard it put any better. I would give anything to go back to good ole 1977. It surely was different things have changed but not for the better I'm afraid.

    C.... W....

    Hey man thanks. I just think if everyone just cools out and tries to be nice to others the world will keep on spinning. You know the old "Golden Rule " trip.Keep Rockin' Bro. BTO forever!

    Been listening since '77 when it came out. I'm 59. This was the last album with the classic line-up. Always has been one of my favorite BTO songs. It's still cool to find out about old songs later after they've been around for a while. Just found a couple of Dave Mason songs I've never heard before from '73 and '74. That's what's cool about music to me.

    T.... A....

    Holy crap. Glad you found.

    Used to play in my Band, Note by note! Sensational tune by BTO!. Compared to the music standards of today, I consider
    myself a lucky person to have lived in the golden Era of Rock music. Today people just get low profile and stupid music. 
    Thera are Mysteries, My Children have rhyme with hidden meanings...
