The Doors – Been Down So Long

ByEditor

The Doors “Been Down So Long (Alternate Version)”
This is an alternate version of “Been Down So Long”, taken from The Doors’ L.A. Woman (40th Anniversary Edition).

Legendary band way ahead of their time. Daily required listening! This Song gets your knee tapping. Rhythm and blues at its best. RIP Best psychedelic classic blues rock american band in history!

This a a very raw, spirited great performance. Marc Benno is also a great guitarist who played on the album and deserves credit. Brilliant Jim still shines so bright!

Ray Manzarek – rhythm guitar
John Densmore – drums
Jerry Scheff – bass
Marc Benno – rhythm guitar

Produced by The Doors and Bruce Botnick

Lyrics:
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 you people
C’mon 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
C’mon and let the poor boy be

Baby, baby, baby
Won’t you get down on your knees
Baby, baby, baby
Won’t you get down on your knees
C’mon, little darlin’
C’mon 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
That it looks like up to me
Yeah, why don’t one you people
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon and set me free
