Up’s And Down’s Lyrics & Chords By Flamin' Groovies

Lindsay-Melcher

Now, things was looking golden, baby
Everything was fine
You never made no sign
That you had changed your mind.

Well, I guess I was mistaken, girl
To count so on you
What else could I do ?
Time to pay my dues.

Well, girl, I've been torn up before
But I can't handle that no more
I been down for a long long time
And it's time to reach my mind
There's lots of pain upon this earth
Girl, I've had my money's worth
I have had my ups and downs and all around.

Well, I've tried to change your way of thinkin'
Tried to make you see
Livin' here with me
Is where you ought to be.

But it didn't seem to make no difference
It never changed your world
Or stopped your social twirl
You're still the same old girl.

Now, girl, I've been torn up before
But I can't handle that once more
I been down for a long long time
Now it's time to reach my mind
'Cause there's lots of pain upon this earth
And, girl, I've had my money's worth
I have had my ups and downs and all around.

I've been up, down, all around now
(Up, down, all around now) I've been up, I been down, I been all around
