Downhill Stuff Lyrics - John Denver

This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the John Denver Album, and has also been released on the Country Classics Album. 

Blue river blues 

I'd rather be outside 

Here I am inside 

Watching it rain 

Blue river blues 

I'd rather be somewhere 

Here I am nowhere 

Watching it rain 

One, two, three, four! 

Some people like that downhill stuff 

They like it fast and breezy 

Some people walk on the other side 

They like it slow and easy

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Some people run on a mountain trail 

Some like it wild and rough 

Some like to fly and some like to sail 

And some like the downhill stuff 

There's work in what we practice 

Work in the things we say 

Sometimes we work just to try to make a living 

Or we're workin' just to make it pay 

Sometimes we're tryin' to work our will 

But that won't work anyway 

I only know that I'm workin' still 

Just to get another chance to play 

Some people like that downhill stuff 

They like it fast and breezy 

Some people walk on the other side 

They like it slow and easy

Some people run on a mountain trail 

Some like it wild and rough 

Some like to fly and some like to sail 

And some like the downhill stuff 

Keep movin' in a forward direction 

Like a river rollin' down to the sea 

If you wanna make a different selection 

Honey, let yourself go with gravity 

Everybody's lookin' for heaven 

Everybody's lookin' for home 

Everybody's lookin' for higher and higher 

But nobody wants to be lookin' alone 

Everybody's tryin' to get down to it 

Everybody's tryin' to sing 

Whatever it is we're all gonna do it 

But whatever we do we gotta do our own thing 

Some people like that downhill stuff 

They like it fast and breezy 

Some people walk on the other side 

They like it slow and easy 

Some people run on a mountain trail 

Some like it wild and rough 

Some like to fly and some like to sail 

Some like the downhill stuff 

I like the downhill stuff 

Let me slide down that downhill stuff 

Oh, honey give me some downhill stuff
