Going Down Slow Lyrics

I'v had my fun if I don't ever get well no more
I'v had my fun if I don't ever get well no more
I know my help is failing me now
I know I'm goin' down slow

Won't somebody write my mother and tell her the shape I'm in
I want somebody to wright my mother and tell her the shape I'm in
I want you tell her to pray for me
Ask her to fortgive me for all my sinns

Mother please don't send me no doctor
A doctor can't do me no good
I don't want you to send me no doctor now..
A doctor just can't do me no good
Back when I was a young boy oh..
I just didn't do the thing I should

Mmmm mmmmmm
Mmmm mmmmmm

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
