(You) Can't Keep a Good Thing Down

I tried to run and swallow my pride

Give you the slip but you give me the slide

Tried hard to push you to the back of my mind

Blot the memories out but still I find

No matter how hard I try

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

It's the best natural high

A vibration deep in your soul

Calling out to all you guys and gals

Who've been told in the past you're the daft but already know

No matter how hard I try

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

No matter how hard I try

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

Had a puff, made a dash, banging love, short of cash

Coming out, don't give in, break a rule, live in sin

Joined the ruck in a rut, fought the filth, slapped it up

Cranky you, cranky me, crank it up, you best believe

No matter how hard I try

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

No matter how hard you try

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing down, no

You can't keep a good thing down

No matter how hard you try

You can't keep a good thing down

You can't keep a good thing
