Lonely At The Top

2 views

Lyrics

I was pourin' out my troubles
 To a stranger in the bar
 'Bout the problems and the pressures
 On a country music star
 Half braggin', half complainin'
 'Bout the money and the fame
 And just how lonely life can be
 When you've made yourself a name
 I said, "Would you like a drink?"
 He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double
 I've worked up a powerful thirst
 Just listenin' to all your troubles"
 "And while he makes that drink
 I'll smoke one if you got 'em
 It might be lonely at the top
 But it's a bitch at the bottom"
 ♪
 I left a hundred on the table
 And didn't wait around for change
 With my load a little lighter
 And my thinkin' rearranged
 That stranger made me realize
 How thankful I should be
 And if I forget, I hope those words
 He said, come back to me
 I said, "Would you like a drink?"
 He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double
 I've worked up a powerful thirst
 Just listenin' to all your troubles"
 "And while he makes that drink
 I'll smoke one if you got 'em
 It might be lonely at the top
 But it's a bitch at the bottom"
 It might be lonely at the top
 But it's a bitch at the bottom
