When Bad Is Comin' Down

When Bad Is Comin' Down

Thirty years ago love fell apart
I didn't know just how
couldn't seem to love you then
and I sure don't want you now

There's broken hearts on every street
broken dreams in every heart
then you left me high and dry
should have known it from the start

you can't buy the good times back
when bad is comin' down -----[ chorus ]

you can try to play me
and haunt me with those eyes
all I'll do is hate you more
and all your rotten lies

I'm so damned tired of runnin'
ain't fallin' for your tears
but I got to get on out of here
while I got a few good years

when you finally stop your chasin'
and I'm nowhere to be found
you'll never buy those good times back
when bad is comin' down

now you can't buy the good times back
when bad is comin' down ----- [chorus ]

No, No, you can't have the good times back
when bad is foolin' round'----- [chorus ]
