Paroles de Lonely At The Bottom

We were buddies once upon a time

And then you took off on your social climb

But fortune only brought you misery
And now you're cryin' out for sympathy

Well, it's lonely at the top

Yea, it's lonely at the top

Well, if this workin' girl were you

She'd just enjoy the view

'Cause it's lonely at the bottom too

Lonely at the bottom too

You're livin' high on easy street

And we're just tryin' to make ends meet

If you get tired of the grind
Yea, it's lonely at the top

Well, if this workin' girl were you

She'd just enjoy the view

'Cause it's lonely at the bottom too

Lonely at the bottom too

Like a kitten in the neighbor's tree

Climbin' up to see what you could see

Now you're cryin', 'cause you need some help

Well, everybody's got to help themselves

Well, it's lonely at the top

Yea, it's lonely at the top

Well, if this workin' girl were you

She'd just enjoy the view

'Cause it's lonely at the bottom too

Lonely at the bottom too

Oh honey I feel so sorry for you

All the way up there all by yourself

Well, if this workin' girl were you

She'd just enjoy the view

'Cause it's lonely at the bottom too

Lonely at the bottom too
