Down by Law

Down by Law is a punk rock band formed in 1989 by former All frontman Dave Smalley, who is the only permanent member. The band has recorded 7 studio albums. They stayed on Epitaph Records until 1998 and have since switched to other labels. Down by Law has never achieved substantial commercial success, but a number of largely popular acts cite them as influential. After several lineup changes, the band went on hiatus from touring and recording in 2003, but resurfaced in 2008 before beginning work on new material and embarking on their first tour in six years in 2009. more »

When I wake up, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next to you
When I go out, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who goes along with you

And if I get drunk, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, whatever that means
I'm gonna be the man who's havering to you

But I would walk 500 miles
An' I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

When I'm working, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you
And when the money comes in for the work I do
I'll pass almost every penny on to you

When I come home, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who comes back home to you
And if I grow old, well I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's growing old with you

And I would walk 500 miles
An' I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Surrender
Surrender

When I'm lonely, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
When I'm dreaming, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna dream about the time when I'm with you

An' if I get drunk, yeah I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who gets drunk next to you
And if I haver, whatever the f*ck that means!
I'm gonna be the man who havers next to you

And I would walk 500 miles
An' I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Surrender
Surrender

When I'm lonely, yes I know I'm gonna be
I'm gonna be the man who's lonely without you
I'm gonna be the man who's coming home

'Cause I would walk 500 miles
An' I would walk 500 more
To be the man who walked a thousand miles
To fall down at your door

Surrender
