Lonely At The Bottom, Too
We were buddies once upon a time
And then you took off on your social climb
Fortune only brought you misery
Now you're cryin' out for sympathy
Well, it's lonely at the top
You say, it's lonely at the top
Well, if this workin', man, were you
Just enjoy the view, it's lonely at the bottom too
Lonely at the bottom too
You're livin' high on easy street
We're just tryin' to make ends meet
If you get tired of the grind
I'll take your place and, buddy, you take mine
'Cause it's lonely at the top
You say, it's lonely at the top
Well, if this workin', man, were you
Just enjoy the view, 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
'Cause it's lonely at the top
Oh yeah, it's lonely at the top
Well, if this workin', man, were you
Just enjoy the view, it's lonely at the bottom too
Lonely at the bottom too
It's lonely at the bottom too
Lonely at the bottom too
Lonely at the bottom too
Oh, it's lonely at the bottom
At the bottom too, oh yeah
