Let's Get the Heckle and Hell Out of Dodgy City

No more
                showdowns
                gunned down
                man down
                let down
                lowdowns
                sundowns
                put downs
                mowed down
                ground down
                lock down
                blown down
                sounded down
                Pinned down.
                Breakdowns...
No more
                shot down in flames.
