Swing low, sweet chariot
Coming for to carry me home

All my friends
know the low rider
the low rider
is a little higher...

Grab a cab and go down
to where the band is playing
Blow
That sweet and low down.

(G. Gershwin/I. Gershwin, from "Tip Toes")

And one other thing before I go
I wanna tell you that I think you're so...so...
Oh I ain't gonna sink THAT low!

I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey rolls an the beer chases
Your blues away

Some day
when Im awfully low
when the world is cold
I will feel a glow
just thinking of you
and the way you look tonight...

Here I am Lord
I'm knocking at your place of business
I know I ain't got no business here
But you said if I ever got so low
I was busted
You could be trusted

(Paul Simon, "Some Folks Lives Roll Easy")

Low in the grave he lay
Jesus my Savior
Waiting the coming day
Jesus my Lord...
...up from the grave he AROSE!

with a might triumph o'er his foes

OH! Sorry. My play.

So high you can't get over it
So low you can't go under it
So wide you can't get around it
You must go through that door

(Learned in the same building I learned "Low in the grave he lay...")

Lo, how a rose e're blooming
From tender stem hath sprung

The baby awakes

Ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough,
Ain't no river wide enough
to keep me from you

Do your ears hang low
Do they wobble to and fro

Speak low when you speak, love
Our summer day withers away too soon
Speak low when you speak, love
Our moment is swift, like ships adrift
We're swept apart too soon

(K. Weill/O. Nash, "Speak Low")

Shooting up junk
He was a lowdown cheap little punk
Taking everyone for a ride

Down in the valley
The valley so low

You know I'm too low, too low, too low for zero

Too Low for Zero ~Elton/Bernie

I skipped the part about love.
It seems so silly and low.

Sometimes I wanna take you down.
Sometimes I wanna get you low.
Brush your hair back from your eyes.
Take you down let the river flow.

When your feeling low, lower than the floor.
And you feel like you ain't got a chance.
Don't make a move till your in the groove.
And do the Peter Panda dance.

--From movie "The Pacifier"
