Red Pants and the Sugarman in the Temple Street gloom
Chivas Regal in a four dollar room
Another dead soldier in a powder blue light
Red Pants and Sugarman say "everything's alright"
Goin' down, down, down, downtown
Goin' down, downtown
Montclaire doin' the St. Vitus dance
Lookin' for somebody to chop the lumber in his pants
How am I gonna unload all this ice and all of this mink
All the traffic in the street but it's so hard to think
Goin' down, down, down, downtown
Goin' down, downtown
Frankie's wearin' lipstick, bruises on his arm
I swear to God I saw him holdin' hands with Jimmy Barr
Sally's high on crank and hungry for some sweets
Fell in the sheets but she'll put you in the streets
Goin' down, down, down, downtown
Goin' down, downtown
It's the cool of the evening, the sun's goin' down
I want to hold you in my arms and push you around
I wanna break your bottle and spill out all your charms
Come on baby, we'll set off all the car alarms
Goin' down, down, down, downtown
Goin' down, downtown
Red Pants and Sugarman in the Temple Street gloom
Chivas Regal in a four dollar room
Another dead soldier in a powder blue night
Red Pants and Sugarman say everything's alright
Goin' down, down, down, downtown
Goin' down, downtown
