3. BEEN DOWN SO LONG
(Music by THE DOORS/Lyrics by Jim Morrison)
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 of you people
Come on and set me free?
I said, warden, warden, warden,
Won't you break your lock and key?
I said, warden, warden, warden,
Won't you break your lock and key?
Yeah, come along here, mister,
Come on, and let the poor boy be.
Baby, baby, baby,
Won't you get down on your knees?
Baby,baby, baby,
Oh, won't you get down on your knees?
Come on, little darlin',
Come on 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
Yeah, it looks like up to me.
Yeah, why don't one of you people
Come on, come on, come on and set me free?!
4. CARS HISS BY MY WINDOW
(Music by THE DOORS/Lyrics by Jim Morrison)
The cars hiss by my window like the waves down on the beach.
The cars hiss by my window like the waves down on the beach.
I've got this girl beside me but she's out of reach.
Headlight through my window shinin' on the wall.
Headlight through my window shinin' on the wall.
Can't hear my baby, though I call and call.
All right! Wow!
Window started tremblin' with a sonic boom.
Window started tremblin' with a sonic boom-boom.
Ah, cold girl I'll kill you in a darkened room.
