It is funny how
Things are so different now
In the years since you’ve been gone
No empty space
Now takes your place
On the pillowcase at dawn
And your memory fades
Just like the setting sun
What’s said is said
And what’s done is done
And you can’t keep a good man down
No, no
You can’t keep a good man down
No, no
You can’t keep a good man down
Who’s got his feet right on the ground
Well, how naïve
Just to make believe
That we were only ever friends
To shake a hand
In no man’s land
Another Christmas card to send
If at first you hate
Cold turkey on your plate
Pretty soon, it’s tasting great
And you can’t keep a good man down
No, no
You can’t keep a good man down
No, no
You can’t keep a good man down
Who’s got his feet right on the ground
