I've Been Down Lyrics

One, two, three...

[Chorus] x 2
I've been down
I've been down
I've been down before
I've been down
I've been down
But never this low

You know that even a strong man falls
And even a wise man has to learn
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Yes it's true
That some men have it all
While me and the rest just crash and burn
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Yeah

You think you're telling me something
But I've heard it once or twice
You've been taking every turn that's wrong
And I've been taking your advice

[Chorus] x 2

I know the day will come
But all my worries now are dead and gone
Ooh, ooh-ooh
Yeah
Won't assume that tomorrow I'll find what's gone
But I'll be right here holding on
Ooh ooh-ooh
Yeah

You think you're telling me something
But I've heard it once or twice
You've been taking every turn that's wrong
And I've been taking your advice

[Chorus] x 2

Say woo...
Say, oh no no no no
Never this low
Say woo...

[Chorus] x 2

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
