STOP BREAKIN’ DOWN Music/lyrics: bill mallonee

This is gonna be short
This is gonna be sweet
this gonna be tidy
this is gonna be neat
like a deal gone bad
like the hand you’ll fold
when the cards hit the table
and the truth gets told
chorus:
Stop breakin’ down
Stop breakin’ down
Stop breakin’ down
Stop breakin’ down
Stop breakin’ down
...on me

I remember when
when we first met
nobody now
plays that hard to get
I forgot just where
where my solo was
when I looked in your eyes
and the monitors buzzed

Is it gonna be just?
Is it gonna be fair?
I wonder where you got
got that idea?
It’s a glass that’s broken
and these shards of trust
baby, all that’s golden
gonna turn to dust
