Default Cheer down

Hi! :)
I can't find anywhere, what does "cheer down" mean (probably some of you will know why I'm looking for it:)
I guess that the meaning is similar to "cheer up", but it's always better to ask:)

Yes, I suspect it is a mistake on the part of the person originally using the phrase.

Wink Re: Cheer down

i never heard about that "cheer down" phrase. Is it the same as cool down? no, i don't think so. It has different meaning. Let's hear it from the experts here in UE.com.

Cheer Down Lyrics
Artist(Band):George Harrison

I can see by your grin
That you're trembling within
It's all over town, cheer down
And the smile on your face
Is sometimes out of place
Don't mind, no frowns, cheer down.

If your hair should fall
If your shares should crash
You'll get by even without getting a rash

There's no tears to be shed
I'm gonna love you instead
I want you around, cheer down.

When your teeth drop out
You'll get by even without taking a bite

If your dog should be dead
I'm gonna love you instead
The world loves a clown, cheer down.
I want you around, cheer down
