Lyrics

ROCK BOTTOM (Gleeson and Moore)
HELL I’VE BEEN DOWN BEFORE BUT I AIN’T NEVER SUNK THIS LOW
I JUST FOUND THE BOTTOM TO MY THIRD BOTTLE OF WINE
THE BLUES AIN’T KILLED ME YET BUT THEY AIN’T GAVE UP ON TRYING
LONELIER THAN THAT FELLOW IN THE MOON TROUBLES YEAH I GOT ’EM
WHOEVER SAID IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP OUGHTA TRY ROCK BOTTOM
I JUST READ HER GOOD-BYE NOTE I THINK THIS MAKES THE TWELFTH TIME
UNLIKE A BEAUTIFUL LOVE NOTE NOT ONE DAMN SINGLE RHYME RED EYED IN A PITCH BLACK HOUSE FILLED WITH BLUES IT’S HARD TO FATHOM
WHOEVER SAID IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP OUGHTA TRY ROCK BOTTOM
BRIDGE 1
THE WHOLE WORLD SEEMS TO BE IN LOVE WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE SOMEONE TO HUG THE WIND WHISPERS YOUR NAME
WISH IT’D BLOW OUT YOUR OLD FLAME
IF I EVER HIT MY NUMBER THAT’S WHEN MY NUMBER WOULD BE UP I MIGHT AS WELL WALK IT I’M THE ONE THAT DUG THIS RUT
BUT YOU’D THINK THIS ‘OLE WORLD COULD SHOW ME A LITTLE LOVE
INSTEAD OF DRAGGING ME THROUGH THE MUD
WHOEVER EVER SAID IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP OUGHTTA TRY ROCK BOTTOM
ROCK BOTTOM.. ROCK BOTTOM........ ROCK BOTTOM.. ROCK BOTTOM
BRIDGE 2
OH NO I’M NOT ABOUT TO GIVE IN
I’LL JUST TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND TRY AGAIN
I WAS ENJOYING THE RIDE BEFORE THE FALL SHOULD HAVE SEEN ME THEN I WAS TEN FOOT TALL
(BACK TO FIRST VERSE 4 LINES)
TAG; WHOEVER SAID IT’S LONELY AT THE TOP OUGHTA TRY ROCK BOTTOM
