Hung Upside Down Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Look what's happening to me
I'm going blind, please help
There I sat until three
Gettin' further behind myself
By myself

[Chorus]
And I'm hung upside down
And I'm hung upside down
Oh, hung upside down, yeah
'Said I'm hung upside down
C'mon, c'mon, hung upside down
Hey, oh, oh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]
Someday, I will be free
And there'll be times, you just wait (You just wait)
I will come to you, see what I'll bring you
When I get straight
Oh, it's too late

[Chorus]
And I'm hung upside down
And I'm hung upside down
Hung upside down, oh, yeah
Hung upside down, down, uh
Hung upside down, oh, oh, oh
[Outro]
Yeah, uh, yeah, c'mon
Uh, uh, yeah, huh
Huh, yeah, huh, yeah
Huh, yeah

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
