Been Down So Long - The Doors Lyrics
Well, I've been down so Goddamn long
That it looks like up to me
Well, I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don't one you people
C'mon and set me free
I said, warden, warden, warden
Won't you break your lock and key
I said, warden, warden, warden
Won't ya break your lock and key
Yeah, come along here, mister
C'mon and let the poor boy be
Baby, baby, baby
Won't you get down on your knees
Baby, baby, baby
Won't you get down on your knees
C'mon little darlin'
C'mon and give your love to me, oh yeah
Well, I've been down so Goddamn long
That it looks like up to me
Well, I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don't one you people
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon and set me free
| Inspired by Richard Farina's 1966 novel Been Down So Long It
Looks Like Up To Me. Farina died in a motorcycle accident 2 days
after it was published. |
| Jim Morrison died shortly after this album was released. He did some
of his best work on it, but still struggled with alcoholism and drug
abuse. He went to Paris to relax, and died there under mysterious
circumstances. |
