I've been up, I've been down,
Take my word, I've been 'round oh,
I'm not askin' for much
I said lord take me downtown
I'm just lookin' for some tush.

I've been bad, I've been good,
Dallas Texas, Hollywood,
I ain't askin' for much,
I said lord take me downtown
I'm just lookin' for some tush.

Take me back, way back home,
Not by myself, not alone
I ain't askin' for much.
I said lord take me downtown
I'm just lookin' for some tush.

I said lord take me downtown
I'm just lookin' for some tush.
I said lord take me downtown
I'm just lookin' for some tush.
