Gov`t Mule Fallen Down Lyrics

Fallen Down Lyrics

Bigelow the gigolo had no where else to go
His sad eyes had seen it
all
Scarred and lonely, tough as nails
Open your heart when all else
fails
Wear the veil and the trojan horse smile

Looking back on
yesteryear
Seems like, maybe, you missed your calling
But hindsight is
very clear when loneliness is falling

And you have fallen down, down
from the heavens
Stuck out in the desert
Amazing grace - such a lonely
place
For heroes like you and me
Fallen down, just like a shooting
star
With no fallen angel standing by
To carry you away

Target
practice with other people’s lives
Hit a few right between the
eyes
But, most of the time, you were wounded by the ricochet
You say
“play to win, boys, never play to lose
Long as your playing, boy, you’re
bullet-proof�
But think about it - you’re bleeding to death
anyway

And you have fallen down, down from the heavens
Stuck out in
the desert
Amazing grace - such a lonely place
For heroes like you and
me
Fallen down, just like a shooting star
With no fallen angel standing
by

Angel of mercy, take pity on a fool
That spent a lifetime
wondering
What Napoleon would do
If he were in your shoes

Rich,
without pleasure - respected without love
Drinking poison from a golden
cup
While anger, brother of fear, creeps like a knife into your
heart

Looking back on yesteryear
Seems like, maybe, you missed your
calling
But hindsight is very clear when loneliness is falling
And
destiny’s through calling

And you have fallen down - fallen
down
Amazing grace - it’s such a lonely place
Oh yes it is
Fallen
down
Fallen down

Fallen down
Fallen down
Fallen down
Fallen
down
