DOWN SO LONG | ||||||

Sun sets 'cross the ocean, | I�m a thousand miles from anywhere. My pocketbook and my heart both just got stolen. And the sun act like she don�t even care. The 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, a cordless telephone for every corner of my room. Got everybody but you telling me what to do. But I�ve been down so long, Ooh, it can�t be longer still. I�ve been down so long, That the end must be drawing near. I 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. And a 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. But I�ve been down so long, Ooh, it can�t be longer still. We�ve been down so long, That the end must be drawing near. I take a trip, I catch a train, I catch a plane, I got a ticket in my hand, And then a man takes my money. And like cattle we all stand, But we�ve been down so long, Ooh, it can�t be longer still. We�ve been down so long, The end must be... I know the end must be... Oh, I know the end must be drawing near Bridge Repeat/Scat Section
