Originally written by southern music producer and musician, Don Nix.
“Going Down” is arguably the highlight of both this album and King’s career. Freddie’s rendition is a testament to the hard-hitting, bluesy funk, menacing and bold sound that define King’s legacy.
Going Down Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm going down
I'm going, down, down, down, down
Yes, I'm going down, yes
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
Yes, I've got my big feet in the window
Got my head on the ground
[Verse 2]
Let me down
And close that boxcar door
Yes, let me down
And close that boxcar door
Well, I'm goin' back to Chattanooga
And sleep on sister Irene's floor
[Guitar Solo]
Hey!
[Verse 1]
Yes, I'm going down
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
I'm going down
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
Yes, I got my big feet in the window
I got my head on the ground
