Little Feat - I've Been The One Lyrics
I've been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away
By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
How can I cry about something from someone that I won't see
Oh my friends all say she had her chance
Let's go shoot some pool
You know a fool is just a fool
And I've tried everything that whiskey cures
But the pain endures
And now I'm feeling that pain
I put my pride in my pocket
That's how I'll spend my loneliest days
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
Hold the lamp above the rafters
These smoke-filled rooms will not replace her
I've been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away
By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes

Little Feat I've Been The One Comments
I'm 62, going on 63, Majorca last year, I serenaded my wife of 37 years this song, in a swimming pool and I never felt younger. God bless you Lowell, missed you since 78.
One of my favorite tunes. When my son was young I used to sing this, Trouble, Takin' my Time and gunboat Willie to him to put him to sleep. When he was older I gave him a cd with those songs on it. He said he still listens to it when he needs comfort.
I sung crazy gun boat Willie to my kids too.
lowell george is legend,one of their best tunes
What was it about this band that most people didn't get? The vocals ,musicianship and lyrics don't get any better than this.
Jackson Browne has done one of the greatest covers ever for his friend Lowell George. Look it up on YT. Jackson has tried to keep alive Lowell's legacy.
Have you heard the cover by the Golden Palominos with Syd Straw on vocals?
Golden Palominos found the truly correct tempo for the song. It's a brilliant song. LG got almost everything right. It's just a better song at a slower tempo.
I've Been the One - Lowell George
I've been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away
By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
How can I cry about something or someone that I won't see
All my friends all say she had her chance
Let's go shoot some pool
You know a fool is just a fool
And I've tried everything that whiskey cures
But the pain endures
Now I'm feeling that pain
I put my pride in my pocket
That's how I'll spend my loneliest days
And it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
Don't know what to do
Hold the lamp above the rafters
These smoke filled rooms will not replace her
I've been the one who has been frightened
And almost borne away
By the very thoughts that I feared yesterday
But it must be dust or smoke that's in my eyes
post the lyrics!
Oops - posted the lyrics to the world, not to you. Here they are. If you want the chords, let me know. I've been playing this song for years.
