Everybody Went Low - John Hiatt

Well the prize was right there underneath our eyeballs

And when it all came down we were looking for the pitfalls

Until Junie said baby get yourself to going

And we were so far gone we had no way of knowing

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Well she was pretty as a junebug jumpy as a nerve end

And when she pulled the rug out my tires started swerving

And I was driving through the living room driving through the basement

Looking for the lowest spot in the pavement

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Nothing there to corrupt you

Nothing there to live up to

There’s no place further down

Turn it off or turn around

Well I was coming up for air I heard somebody breathing

And it was Junie Bug praying harder than a heathen

And she was smiling like the sole survivor in a lifeboat

Said if I jump in Junie do you think this thing will still float

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Everybody went low

Low, low low…
