Ive been down so long
You know, down dont bother me
Ive been down so long
You know, down dont bother me
Im gonna take all my troubles
And cast em in the deep, blue sea
I work hard every day
I come straight home at night
And no matter how hard I try
Yknow you never wanna treat me right
Ive been down so long
You know, down dont bother me
Im gonna take all my worries
And cast em in the deep, blue sea
I bought you a nice coat for Christmas
And a diamond ring
And now youve got the nerve to tell me
That my love dont mean a thing
Ive been down so long
Til down dont bother me
Im gonna cast all my troubles
And take em to the deep, blue sea
