I'm going down

I am experiencing a decline or downfall.

I'm going, down, down, down, down, down

Emphasizing the intensity of the decline with repetitive expressions.

Yes, I'm going down, yes

Affirming the acknowledgment of the descent.

I'm going down, down, down, down, down

Reiterating the sense of going down, reinforcing the theme.

Yes, I've got my feet in the window

Describing a physical position, possibly symbolizing vulnerability.

Got my head on the ground

Depicting a posture of surrender or submission, metaphorically or literally.


Let me down

Requesting assistance or intervention to bring about a change.

And close that box car door

Asking to be released or let down, possibly from a difficult situation.

Yes, let me down

Repeating the plea for release and closure, closing a chapter.

And close that box car door

Insisting on the need to shut a door, symbolizing moving on.

Well, I'm goin' back to Chattanooga

Expressing a decision to return to a specific place, Chattanooga, with potential symbolic meaning.

And sleep on sister Irene's door

Indicating an intention to seek solace or rest at a familiar place, sister Irene's door.


Yes, I'm going down

Reiterating the theme of a decline or descent.

I'm going, down, down, down, down, down

Intensifying the expression of going down with repetition.

I'm going down

Affirming the ongoing descent, maintaining the thematic consistency.

I'm going down, down, down, down, down

Repeating the emphasis on going down, reinforcing the narrative.

Yes, I've got my feet in the window

Recalling the physical position mentioned earlier, emphasizing the state of descent.

Got my head on the ground

Restating the surrender or vulnerability depicted earlier.
