Down So Long [Woodstock 99]

[Verse 1] Sun sets 'cross the ocean I'm a thousand miles from anywhere My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen And that sun act like she don't even care Wind blows cold when you reach the top It feels like someone's face is stuck to the bottom of my shoe I got a plastic Jesus and a cordless telephone for every corner of my room Got everybody but you telling me what to do [Chorus] But I been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still I been down so long That the end must be drawin' near [Verse 2] Look to everybody but me to answer my prayers 'Til I saw an angel in a bathroom Who said she saw no one worth saving anywhere Blind man on the corner said it's simple Like flipping a coin Don't matter what side it lands on If it's someone else's dime [Chorus] But I been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still I been down so long That the end must be drawin' near [Bridge] I take a trip, I catch a train, I catch a plane I got a ticket in my hand And then a fat man takes my money And like cattle we all stand [Chorus] But we been down so long Oh, it can't be longer still We been down so long The end must be... Oh, I know the end must be... Oh, I know the end must be drawin' near
