GOING DOWN SLOW by Scott Detweiler
Well I had my fun if I don’t get well no more
My head is feeling kinda funny
Said I’m going down slow
Somebody please write my mama and tell her the shape I’m in
Tell her to pray for me
And to forgive me for all of my sins
Somebody please write my father and tell him not to waste no tears
All this livin fast and reckless
Has taken away a lot of my years
Well I had my fun if I don’t get well no more
My health is failing me
Said I’m going down slow
Leavin on the next train
Going down slow

STORMY MONDAY by Scott Detweiler
They call it stormy Monday
Tuesday just as bad
Wednesday’s worse
Thursday’s oh, so sad
The eagle flies on Friday
Saturdays I go out and play
Sundays I’m in church
This is what I pray
I pray, “Lord have mercy”
“Lord have mercy on me”
“If anybody out there finds my baby,
Please bring her home to me”
