Ho-down Lyrics

    (elliot wolff / howie hersh /da' count / paula abdul / robb boldt / jesse greer / irving mills / cab calloway / clarence gaskill)

    Chorus:
    That's what i want
    That's what i need
    That's what i want
    Ho-down

    She sprays her lies around her like the clouds release the rain
    And endless stream of promises that vaporize again
    Remember last tuesday when you said it was the end
    You caught her in your nissan getting funky with your best friend
    She will never change till her flesh is under dirt
    But then at least she's hangin' with neighbors she deserves
    Forgive me if i seem to sound a little on the loose
    But i cannot pour sugar just to sweeten up the truth

    I would like to wish her to a long forgotten dream
    Happened early morning when i was just two or three
    Everyone around who didn't quite fit in the mix
    Turned and waved goodbye and disappeared without a hitch
    Except my friend billy who live just across the way
    The world belonged to us forever on from that day
    Until we ran into that sneaky girl from down the street
    Who tried to smile so pretty stealing billy right from me

    Chorus

    The world spun around her everywhere that she would go
    But even my friend billy knew that she was just a - oh no
    She had such a way to twist and turn a simple truth
    Told my friend billy i had been a little loose
    Then billy took her by the arm and left me standing all along
    I just had to wait there watching them do-se-do
    Till billy pushed her in the deepest darkest hole around
    It was goodbye sneaky girl - ho down

    I would like to wish her for her a place to somewhere far
    A place in outer space to some exotic little star
    A million miles away would probably suit the planet fine
    Someplace where it's clear she is gone and you are mine
    Or maybe some romantic little island in the sea
    As far away as it is possible to be
    She can have the flowers and the wind
    And i can have my baby back with me once again

    Chorus

    I would like to wish for her another little story
    My daddy said to me when i was just a little girly
    He told me 'bout a pretty graceful lovely lady bird
    Who never could find a nest good enough for her
    From every tree she landed in she saw one that was better
    So off she went before she ever could regain her breath
    Wasn't it a pity when she finally hit the ground
    It was goodbye lovely birdy - ho down
    Goodbye lovely birdy - ho down
