Old Johnny Walker got a cane in his hand
Rhythm in his shoes like a devil he can dance
Got money in his pocket and a woman on his sleeve
She's there every night and she'll do what she please
Candy been sweet since the age of eighteen
Hustling, bustling boulevard dreams
Hiding money in the walls maybe she can make it out
The rule on the street says there's no doubt
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Don't matter much if you're new to this place
Everybody knows he invented this game
Yeah neon don't sleep and he ain't so kind
So candy took a taste of another man's wine
She was his best, his bottom, his girl
He had a few more but she was his world
With his heart in his hand and money down the drain
They both went swimming in the river of pain
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
She was begging for a dollar, counting every coin
Nobody's a believer so she lit her last joint
As they watched the sun fall for the very last time
Johnny took the only thing he loved in his life
Ashes to ashes
We all fall down
Ashes to ashes, We all fall down (×4)
We all fall down.
