[Verse 1]
Oh my
Life has passed me by
The country I was brought up in
Fell apart and died
Oh no, ooh
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
[Chorus]
Lowdown, ooh
Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown
I got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Yeah yeah
Oh no
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
[Chorus]
Lowdown, ooh
Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown, oh
I got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
Oh my
Life has passed me by
The country I was brought up in
Fell apart and died
Oh no, ooh
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
[Chorus]
Lowdown, ooh
Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown
I got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Yeah yeah
Oh no
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
[Chorus]
Lowdown, ooh
Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown, oh
I got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
