I wanted something similar to "Gone" by one of the Everly brothers and on the "Raising Sand" CD. I like this song. It doesn't sound exactly what I went into the studio with (it's better and more difficult to perform) I await your comments.
Lyrics included below.
I Been Down © 2012 Eddie Rhoades key of A
Since you left me, all alone, since the day that
you’ve been gone
I’ve been Oh, so lonely
I been down, down, down, down
Quit my job, walked off today, Even tho I really need the pay
I’ve been Oh, so tired
I been down, down, down, down
BRIDGE
People say I can’t get lower than the floor
I keep sinking more and more and more
Since the day you walked out that door
I been down, down, down, down
Lead
Every day, just like the last, but I know, this too shall pass
I’ve been bro-ken hearted
I been down, down, down, down
Now the funnies, they’re not funny anymore,
Nothing's quite the way it was before
I’ve been Oh, so lonely
I been down, down, down, down
BRIDGE
I been down, down, down, down
I been down, down, down, down
I been down, down, down, down
I been down
