[Chorus]
Well, I've been down so Goddamn long
That it looks like up to me
I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
What one of you people
Come along and set me free

[Verse]
Warden, warden, warden
Won't you break your lock and key
Warden, warden, warden
Oh, won't you break your lock and key
Come around here Mister
Come on, let me be

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Bridge]
Now baby, baby, baby
Won't you sit down on my knee
I said baby, baby, baby
Oh, won't you sit down on my knee
Come on, little darlin'
Come on, give love to me
Oh yeah
[Instrumental Interlude]

[Outro Chorus]
Well, I've been down so Goddamn long
That it looks like up to me
And I've been down so very damn long
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don't one you people
Come on, come on, come on
And set me free
