Lyrics

I was twenty one naive
not cynical, I try to please
her wit, her speech, her repartee
impressed me almost instantly

She went all the way, all the way down
she went all the way, all the way

She showed me sex a hundred ways,
how she pimped and how she paid
all the daughters, all the sons
all were welcome, all would come

We went all the way, all the way down
we went all the way, all the way

I was king, mr cool
just a snotty little fool (like kids are now)
dreamed of reaching greater heights
I raved about it every night (talked)

She went all the way, all the way down
she went all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way down

She's there when I close my eyes
there when I close my eyes
she's there when I close my eyes
there when I close my eyes

How the years rush on by,
birthdays, kids and suicides
but still I play the fool and strut
still you're a slut

She went all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way down
she went all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way down
she went all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way down
down, down

You give me back that time right now
I can see it if I close my eyes
Was every minute just a waste?
was every hour a foolish chase?
(no, I don't believe you ???)

She went all the way, all the way down
she went all the way, all the way down
