Raisin' up my family, in Indianapolis,
     what can you tell a father to help him protect his kids from this?
There's a lot of people like me, tired of bein' sad.
     Junior get your gun out son, there's another dog gone mad.

          Today I am low down, cause' I just read her story in the lost and found.
          And it kind of makes me wonder, what the hells gone down?
          Today I can tell you I was low down.

She thought you were a friend of hers, she thought you really cared.
     You told her that you loved her, and she was totally prepared.
To follow you most anywhere, that you would have her go.
     But winter is much colder here, cause' I still miss her so.

          Today I am low down, cause' I just read her story in the lost and found.
          Kind of makes me wonder, what the hells gone down?
          Today I can tell you I was low down.

          Jonestown, sundown has fallen in on you.
               Most of us, we just don't understand.
          Turn around, ghost town how could I have helped you?
               Never even knew that you were feelin' that bad.

               Turn around round' round', Turn around round' round'.

If you don't want me to find you, you can hide behind the moon.
     A little bit of courage and some faith, you can be there pretty soon.
I still believe in Eagles, how I love to watch them fly.
     When winter brings the snow again, I hate to see the flowers die.

          Today I am low down, for nine-hundred flowers down in Jonestown.
          It kind of makes me wonder what the hells gone down?
          Today I can tell you I was low down.

          Jonestown, sundown has fallen in on you.
               Most of us, we just don't understand.
          Turn around, ghost town how could I have helped you?
               I never even knew that you were feelin' that bad.
               I never even knew that you were feelin' that bad.

               Turn around round' round', Turn around round' round'
               Never even knew that you were down in Jonestown.
               Turn around round' round'
