Countdown Lyrics by The Black Keys

The Big Come Up

2002

[Verse 1]
Well it's one, two, three, four, five, six
Seven, eight, nine, countdown
Countdown the times I tried to make you mine
Cryin' eyes
Countdown times I tried to
Tried to make you mine
[Verse 2]
Well my heart goes out to you in your in time of need
But you caused me pain 'most every time you breathed
Cryin' eyes
Caused me pain every
Every time you breathed
[Verse 3]
Well you said you'd love me 'til you died
Took you home, but you stayed out late always
Doin' me wrong
Cryin' eyes
Staying out late always
And you're always doin'
Always doin' me wrong
[Verse 4]
So I’m leaving in the morning if I have to ride them lies
You stole my heart
But you can’t take my mind
Cryin' eyes
Stole my heart but you
You can’t take my
[Verse 5]
Well you stole my heart
It damn-near drove me mad
I got to get back home to my Momma and Dad
Cryin' eyes
Stole my heart but baby
Get back home to my
Get back home to my
