High Cost Of Low Living

You're the life of the party, everybody's host
 Still you need somewhere you can hide
 All your good time friends
 And your farewell to has-beens
 Lord knows, just along for the ride
 You think you're a survivor
 But boy, you better think twice
 No one rides for nothin'
 So, step up and pay the price
 It's a high cost of low livin'
 Ain't it high time? You turn yourself around
 Yeah, the high cost of low livin'
 It's bound to put you six feet in the ground
 So many here who love ya
 But still, you just can't tell
 Real ones and those who drop your name
 All the while behind your back
 They lift the flesh right from your bones
 You should know by now through all their game
 They've been chasing each dream with whiskey
 From here to Tokyo
 Usin' up all your real friends
 Places left to go
 It's a high cost of low livin'
 Ain't it high time? You turn yourself around
 Yeah, the high cost of low livin'
 It's bound to put you six feet in the ground
 Don't look behind you
 Ahh, don't look back
 Don't turn to find reason in the past
 Past is gone, gone at last
 And it's high cost of low livin'
 And it's high time you turn yourself around
 Well, the high cost of low livin'
 It's bound to put you six feet in the ground
