[Verse 1]

I know it's gon' hurt, yeah, I ain't gon' lie

Truth is I'm liable to cry

One foot in, one out the door

Ain't no use goin' back and forth

But if you gotta do what you gotta do

Just make sure you've thought it through

'Cause I'ma be a heart broke down and out

If you leave me, girl, don't leave me now

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

Show me a little mercy 'fore you break this heart of mine

Let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

If you give me 'til tomorrow, I'll be fine

(Oh, let it down)

[Verse 2]

Oh, I know your mind's made up, you're good as gone

But hold your horses, hold the phone

I'ma need a quick second to breathe

'Fore you pack your bags, just up and leave

So give me your word you ain't gon' go

Before the sun rise and the rooster crow

I know it's too late, can't make it right

What's it gonna hurt, just one more night?

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

Show me a little mercy 'fore you break this heart of mine

Let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

If you give me 'til tomorrow, I'll be fine (Hey)

And I'll be fine

[Bridge]

Come on, baby, it can't be that bad

Don't you do me like this, lookin' like that

Oh, what's one more night? You got your whole life

To leave me high and dry

(Come on, now)

[Chorus]

Come on, baby, let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

Show me a little mercy 'fore you break this heart of mine

Let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

If you give me 'til tomorrow, I'll be fine

[Outro]

Let it down, let it down

Let it down on down the line

(Show me a little mercy 'fore you break this heart of mine)

I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine (Let it down, let it down)

(Let it down on down the line)

(If you give me 'til tomorrow, I'll be fine)

Oh, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine
