F#                       Em
Where everyone gets down  down
From the Irish to the rich that have fallen from grace
To the battered wife took one too many on the face
The husband is drunk n' so absurd
To the people who give up on the world
An all those people hit me
They just knock me down
In cardboard town   come on down   cardboard town
Where everyone gets down  down

     (Em)
Down in the gutter sleepin' with the dogs
Talkin' to the fleas   rats n' the hogs
Drinkin' the grain that'll rot my brain
Leavin' thunderbird city on the next nightrain
An all those people hit me
They just knock me down
In cardboard town   come on down   cardboard town
Whre every one gets down  down
Come on down   irish n' slick guys hang around
