    VERSE 1
    Down in Lake Charles, Loozianna, back in 1979
    All loaded up in a pickup truck, scrapin up change for wine
    We’d take a ride by the lake, turn around at the Point,
    There’s a carload-a girls and Bo Breaux’s got a joint,
    We go, OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT [M: D EE]
    We go, OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT [M: D EE]

    VERSE
    Oh and I remember Rachel, with her mouth too full of teeth
    She was the one who made me know I could love, and then she made a fool out of me
    I can still feel the wind frizzin up my curls, I can smell that refinery funk,
    Makin out on the hood of a Dodge Coronet, with Bad Company in the trunk
    We go, OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT
    We go, OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT

    CHORUS repeat to END—HARMONY VOX CONTINUE

    OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT
    We go, OO-OO-OO-OO, and we HOLD IT
    Remember when RID’N-AROUND meant you were GETTIN DOWN (x4, fading down each pass)

    DOWN LOW
    Intro: G Em Am Em Cm D D

    VERSE
    G Em
    He opened his eyes and they swallowed him whole
    Am Em
    He talked all night through the radio
    Cm
    Down low
    G Em
    She stepped through the halls like Destiny’s Child
    Am Em
    Out of her mind and into the wild
    Cm
    Down low

    CHORUS
    Bm Em
    It’s better if you don’t try
    Cm G
    Just let go and sigh
    Cm D
    Let go…. Down low

    VERSE
    It starts with a sip and turns to a song
    A silly urge etched in silicon
    Down low

    Did you get the begonias I sent you today
    Did you read the card or just throw them away
    Down low

    CHORUS
    SOLO OVER VERSE
    CODA CHORUS (finish on G)
