Twelve Steps Down Lyrics

I tried to give up on love
'Cause I knew I should
No matter how hard I tried
It didn't do me no good

I just stopped cold turkey
What else could I do
There were pieces of my heart all over town
And I was runnin' out of blue

I was feelin' okay
When I got out of bed
But what I saw outside my window
Was like a kick in the head

My hands started shakin'
I felt the cold chills begin
When I saw that truck pull up
Now look who's movin' in

He lives twelve steps down
In the apartment below
He's got what it takes to tempt a woman
Body and soul
And if I fall I ain't got far to go
Slidin' around
I'm losin' ground
He lives twelve steps down

I tried to get a better look
So I sneaked downstairs
And just three steps from the bottom
I saw him standing there

Ain't it just my luck
He says he wants to be my friend
He set two gla*ses on the table
Now he's invitin' me in

And he lives twelve steps down
In the apartment below
He's got what it takes to tempt a woman
Body and soul
And if I fall I ain't got far to go
Slidin' around
I'm losin' ground
He lives twelve steps down

He lives twelve steps down
In the apartment below
He's got what it takes to tempt a woman
Body and soul
And if I fall I ain't got far to go
Slidin' around
I'm losin' ground
He lives twelve steps down

Slidin' around
I'm losin' ground
He lives twelve steps down
Twelve steps down
