Derek Ryan - Down On Your Uppers Lyrics
Oh you're down on your uppers, I said you need new boots
Will you listen to your mother, oh I said you're down on your uppers
I remember when I was a boy, I didn't need no fancy toys
I just wanted to explore, go out into the great outdoors
Till the evenin' shadows fall, when I would hear my mama call
Oh you're down on your uppers, I said you need new boots
Have you got no others, that you can fit into?
Oh Derekeen, they're the worst I've seen
They're needin' more than a bit of a clean
Will you listen to your mother, oh I said you're down on your uppers
Now as I walk these city streets, I'm moving to a country beat
Grey hills and flashing lights, they surround me day and night
To where the evenin' shadows fall, and I can hear my mama call
Oh you're down on your uppers, I said you need new boots
Have you got no others, that you can fit into?
Oh Derekeen, they're the worst I've seen
They're needin' more than a bit of a clean
Will you listen to your mother, oh said you're down on your uppers
Oh you're down on your uppers, I said you need new boots
Oh Derekeen, they're the worst I've seen
They're needin' more than a bit of a clean
Will you listen to your mother, oh you're down on your uppers
Yeah I said you're down on your uppers, oh you need new boots
Have you got no others, that you can fit into?
Oh Derekeen, they're the worst I've seen
They're needin' more than a bit of a clean
Will you listen to your mother, oh I said you're down on your uppers
Ah come in for your supper, cause you're down on your uppers

This is the fantastic new music video from the great Derek Ryan. It's a wonderful song, with excellent lyrics, and Derek performs it beautifully. The backing music is top class also. Derek Ryan comes from County Carlow, Ireland, and is one of Ireland's best Country 'n' Irish singer/songwriters. The song is a track from his superb album ''The Fire''. Many thanks to Derek Ryan for uploading this magnificent music video. It's very well made, and really suits the music. Enjoy this fabulous song ! Shared on Google+
Thanks you very much appreciated song
