Lyrics for I'm Not Down by The Clash
Songwriters: Jones, Mick; Mellor, John
Then what do all the poor do with their lives?
So you rock around and think that you're the toughest
You ain't been there
And I'm not down, no I'm not down
Like skyscrapers rising up
I've been beat up, I've been thrown out
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
I've been beat up, I've been thrown out
But I'm not down, no I'm not down
On Judgment Day, have nothing to say
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
No I'm not down, no I'm not down
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
It goes down and down and hit the floor
I was not done
And I have lived that kind of day
But you're streets away from where it gets the roughest
But I'm not down, no I'm not down
No I'm not down, no I'm not down
On my own, I faced a gang of jeering in strange streets
When my nerves were pumping and I
Floor by floor, I'm not giving up
I've been beat up, I've been thrown out
When I can swing everything back my way
Down and down and down some more depression
I'm not down, no I'm not down
But I now there'll be some way
In the world, the whole wide world
And I'm not down, no I'm not down
And I'm not down, no I'm not down
When none of your sorrows will go away
But I'm not down, no I'm not down
Fought my fear in, I did not run
