TWO DOORS DOWN
(Dolly Parton)

as recorded by Lynn Anderson


Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party,
Two doors down they're not aware that I'm around!
Here I am, just cryin' my heart out, feelin' sorry,
They're havin' a party just two doors down!

Think I'll dry these useless tears and get myself together,
I think I'll wander down the hall and have a look around,
'Cause I can't stay inside this lonely room and cry for ever,
I think I'd really rather join 'em two doors down!

Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party,
Two doors down they're not aware that I'm around!
Here I am, no longer cryin' and feelin' sorry,
We're havin' a party just two doors down!

Can't believe I'm standin' here, dry-eyed, all smiles and talkin',
Makin' conversation with the new love I've found!
I ask him if he'd like to be alone and we start walkin',
Down the hall to my place, waitin' two doors down.

Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party,
Two doors down we're not aware that they're around!
Here I am, I'm feelin' everything but sorry,
We're havin' our own party two doors down!

Oh-oh-oh, oh, two doors down,
Oh-oh-oh, oh, two doors down,
Oh-oh-oh, oh, two doors down,
Oh-oh-oh, oh, two doors down!

Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party,
Two doors down they're not aware that I'm around!
Here I am, I'm feelin' everything but sorry,
We're havin' our own party two doors down!

Wo-wo-wo, two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party,
Two doors down they're not aware that they're around!
Here I am, I'm feelin' everything but sorry,
Havin' our own party two doors down!
Two doors down they're laughin' and drinkin' and havin' a party...
