...CAN'T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN... by Randy Newman

Dm A7 Dm
Everybody gather 'round me;
Bbm Dm
I got somethin' I wanna tell you...
Interlude:
Bbm Dm, Bbm G, C#
Listen...
Verse 1:
F A7
When you're on the bottom like I am today,
D7
And those around you are losing faith,
In what you're tryin' to do;
G9 C7
There is only one thing a man can say;
Dm Bb C7 F C7, F
You can't keep a good man down.
Verse 2:
F A7
There've been mistakes and I've made a few,
D7
But, oh, what a price I had to pay.
G9 C7
Yet still they try to push me a-round,
Dm Bb C7 F C, C7
But they can't keep a good man down.
Bridge 1:
F7
There may be times, when I'm feelin' low,
Eb Bb A Bb
I lose sight of the dream.
Eb Bb A Bb
(Don't lose sight of the dream).
G7
But that's alright, 'cos soon, I know;
C7
I'll be back on top again, runnin' things. Hey, hey.
Verse 3:
F A7
Treat a man like dirt; give him no respect for who he is,
D7
Expect something dirty in return.
G9 C7
Oh,they're flyin' high up there but they've got a lot to learn.
Dm Bb C7 F C7, F
Because you can't keep a good man down.
Interlude:

They can't keep a good man down, woah, woah, woah...

They can't keep a good man...down.
