Songs that say "down"in them


/
The Gambler - Kenny Rogers

"So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his faced lost all expression
He said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right"


 
Desperado

Linda Ronstadt version - what a voice. It's such a shame that Parkinson's has robbed her of her voice. :(

"Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, and open the gate
It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you,
You better let somebody love you,
You better let somebody love you,
You better let somebody love you,
Before it's too late."


 
[Barry Manilow - Somewhere Down the Road]

Another 2 songs by Barry Manilow. (Probably more as his songs tend to be melancoly. Strange for a man who started out composing happy jingles for commercials, to pay the rent.)

Trying to Get the Feeling Again

"Before she sees that I've been
Up, down, tryin' to get the feelin' again
All around tryin' to get the feelin' again
The one that made me shiver
Made my knees start to quiver
Every time she walked in"



Mandy

"I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice"

 
And I hate admitting that I own the original 45, of which this song is the B side to Daydream Believer. 1967.
LOL! I'm happy to admit I sold all my 45s, 78s (inherited from my parents) and 33-1/3s before moving; so freeing!
OK so it's Mickey/Micky singing but where are the others? The vid looks like it's a bit later (Vegas?) than the heyday of the 3 on their TV show.
