Nothin' to say
When times go bad
When times go rough
Lay me down
And know I got nothin'
I know there's nothin'
Times go bad
Can't get enough
Lay me down
And let me miss you
Been down so long
Tossed around enough
Just let me go
I know you're someone who's gonna
lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do it, do it, do it
I'm second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
Original Lyrics ▼
I know there's nothin' to say
Someone has taken my place
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in tall grass
And let me do my stuff
I know I got nothin' on you
I know there's nothin' to do
When times go bad
And you can't get enough
Won't you lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do my stuff
One thing I think you should know
I ain't gonna miss you when you go
Been down so long
I've been tossed around enough
Aww, couldn't you just
Let me go down and do my stuff
I know you're hopin' to find
Someone who's gonna give you peace of mind
When times go bad
When times go rough
Won't you lay me down in the tall grass
And let me do my stuff
Do it, do it, do it
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
I'm just second hand news
I'm just second hand news, yeah
Yeah
