Goin' Down Lyrics - The Complete Warner Recordings - Allen Toussaint

Don't get in too deep, brother 

Don't get in too heavy 

Don't get so you can't move about 

Whenever you get ready 

Born free, John see 

But he sees just a little too late 

Losing his freedom and losing his soul 

Now all he can do is just wait for the others 

Going down slowly Slowly going down 

Holy moses slowly going down

Don't you get in too deep, sister 

Don't get in too heavy 

Don't you fix it so you can't move about 

Whenever you get ready 

Born free, Mary see 

But you see just a little too late 

Had her history rectified 

Now, all she can do is just wait for it to happen 

Going down slowly Slowly going down 

Holy moses slowly going down 

Don't get in too deep, brother 

Don't get in too heavy 

Don't get so you can't move about 

Whenever you get ready 

Born free, John see 

But he sees just a little too late 

Losing his freedom and losing his soul 

Now, all he can do is just wait for it to happen
