[Intro]
Hey

[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, uh, 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
I got everybody but you telling me what to do

[Chorus]
But I've 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]
Looked 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've been down so long
Oh, it can't be longer still
I've been down so long, baby
Oh, 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've been down so long, baby
Oh, it can't be longer still, oh
We've been down so long, baby, oh
The end must be
Oh, I know it must be
'Cause the end must be
I just know it must be
'Cause the end must be just a drawin'

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
'Cause we've been down so long, baby, oh
Oh, it can't be, can't be longer still
We've been down so long, baby
Oh, the end must be
Oh, I know it must be
'Cause the end must be
Oh, I know it must be
'Cause the end must be just a drawin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, woah, yeah
