I'm going down and I don't when
I'm coming up again.
Oh, I'm going down, I said I don't know when
I'm coming up again.
When did I slip?
Where did I miss you?
When did I trip over you?
And when will I fly over you?
Oh, I'm going down and I don't know when
I'm coming up again.
Oh, I'm going down, said I don't know when
I'm coming up again.
Dark has come.
I'm not afraid, though.
I can't become anyone.
And I don't want anyone, no.
Oh, I'm going down and I don't know when
I'm coming up again.
Oh, I'm going down, said I don't know when
I'm coming up again.
There was a love, I shot it down.
There was a trust, I shot it down.
There was a life, I shot it down.
ah-ahA Teenage Idol
Ricky Nelson
Music and lyrics by Jack Lewis
Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be
I need somebody to be my baby
Someone to tell my troubles to
I've got no time to ever find her
Cause I'm just passing through
I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone
I get no rest when I'm feeling weary
I got to pack my bags and go
I got to be somewhere tomorrow
To smile and do my show
I travel around from town to lonely town
I guess I'll always be just a rolling stone
If I find fortune and fame and lots of people know my name
That won't mean a thing if I'm all alone
Some people call me a teenage idol
Some people say they envy me
I guess they got no way of knowing
How lonesome I can be
How lonesome I can be
