Musta been high
musta had plenty
if she had one
(don't know) mighta had twenty
flat on my back
with the wind out of my sail
my friends all say
I look a little skinny and pale
caught a nasty little bug
one thing sure there ain't no cure
when you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
enough to make a soul man straight
or make a wildcat domesticate

My head's too hot
my nose a little runny
my family doctor
stuck me twice and stole my money

Mirror mirror on the wall
let me tell you what I see
some kind of strung out fool
looking back at me
I need a miracle drug
cause one thing sure there ain't no cure
when you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
enough to make a soul man straight
or make a wildcat domesticate

Flat on my back
with the wind out of my sail
my friends all say
I need a miracle drug
cause one thing sure there ain't no cure
when you're down with love

Enough to make a grown man cry
or make a mule comply (comin' down with love)
enough to make a mad dog tame
and give a man a good name
one thing's sure there ain't no cure
when you're down with love
