My ship came in and she sunk it, I was the toast of the town and she drunk it, I had a run of good luck and she ran it right into the ground. And now she’s putting on shows where I get to play the clown. I had the wind in my sails and she took it, I had the world by the tail and she shook it, I reached out for a life line and she threw me a noose, I got the money for chicken she got to blow the goose. CHORUS She’s living it up and trying to live it down, Just when I got it all together it all about to come (unplanned)? Everybody laughing behind my back ha-ha, sure is a sad old sound She’s out there living it up and I’m trying to live it down I had my ducks in a row and she shot them I had my eggs in a basket she dropped them I threw her out of the house but she was back like a boomerang Sometimes you get her honey sometimes all you get is her sting CHORUS She’s living it up and trying to live it down, Just when I got it all together it all about to come unplanned Everybody laughing behind my back ha-ha, sure is a sad old sound She’s out there living it up and trying to live it down She’s living it up and I intend to live it down
