Lyrics

Down Below

You keep your head up
You keep your head held high
You keep your head up
You keep looking to the sky
You keep your head up
Ain’t no need to know what’s going on down below

I once knew a man who wore leather and lace
Didn’t care what was said, he never lost his place
He looked death in the face and didn’t give a damn
He left his fear of losing face back in Vietnam
While the rest of us were trying just make some sense
He was giving up all his pretense

You keep your head up…etc.

I’ll bet you know someone who needs to conform
No matter what is asked they will always perform
They’ve got their fingers in all the most stylish pies
Waiting in the limelight to be handed the prize
But no matter what is certain, a shadow is always cast
And no matter who is first will ever end up last

You keep your head up…etc.
