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. CHORUS. 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. CHORUS. 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. CHORUS.
