One Way Down

Las Vegas in winter, it's cold outside

I'm pulling out some splinters, and looking for a place to hide
Walking back to my room, the pretty ladies on the floor
Smile at you for free, three hundred gets you more

I'm so low I'm tempted to find out
If I could drop enough and screw this heartache out, One way down
One way down

My friend Amy, she's been married ten years

These days her husband doesn't even come near

She tells me she's so scared of just going to waste

Whispers in my ear "Would you like a taste?"

I know I know, there's a higher ground
All I'm thinking is when should I come round?
One way down
One way down

Short skirts, tall legs, the girls keep walking by

Tempting me again to cross that line

You do it once or twice, you can call it a mistake

'Til you wake up one morning with a habit you can't break

So let me know what my money buys
You can swear to me I'm not like other guys
One way down
One way down
One way down
One way down, one way down
One way down, one way down
One way down, one way down
