I've been down and I ain't going back again Down to the well and I dropped my wishes in I watched it fall and I finally fell Asked for heaven but it's just been hell Soaked in sin and I ain't going back again ♪ I've been down and I ain't ever going back Down to the bottom of the belly where the sun shines black Darkness blinded everything If I had one eye they woulda made me king I've been down and I ain't ever going back A blackbird gave me a warning That was the first thing that I heard that morning He said "Run, baby, run Oh, the worst is still to come" Just a voice ♪ Up from the bottom, straight through the top Sun is shining, it ain't gonna stop If there's anything I learned at all Never again will I have to crawl Up from the bottom, straight through the top A blackbird gave me a warning That was the first thing that I heard that morning He said "Run, baby, run Oh, the worst is still to come" Hell, a blackbird gave me a warning That was the first thing that I heard that morning He said "The worst was still coming If you're gonna run babe, keep on running"
