LYRICS

i caught you knockin'
at my cellar door
i love you, baby
can i have some more
ooh, ooh, the damage done

i hit the city and
i lost my band
i watched the needle
take another man
ohh, ohh, the damage done

heyaaanaa

i sing the song
because i love the man
i know that some
of you don't understand
milk-blood
to keep from running out

i've seen the needle
and the damage done
a little part of it in everyone
but every junkie's
like a setting sun

i caught you knockin'
at my cellar door
i love you, baby
can i have some more
ooh, ooh, the damage done

i've seen the needle
and the damage done
a little part of it in everyone
but every junkie's
like a setting sun

COMMENTS

"So um, this is my little friend [the organ]. This is Country Joe and the Fish's. So she's with me and we're going to do something, um, really because we have great respect for this man [Neil Young] and um, you know what i mean."
-- Tori in-concert; intro to song; Oakland, CA 11/12/01

Amos opted for Heart of Gold as her Neil Young interpretation, even though she personally favors other songs like The Needle and the Damage Done and Cinnamon Girl.
