Rock Bottom (single version) Lyrics
Words and Music by Buddy Buie and J.R. Cobb
When you hit rock bottom You've got two ways to go Straight up And sideways I have seen my share of hard times And I'm letting you know Straight up Is my way
Things are tough all over But I've got good news When you get down to nothing You've got nothing to lose I was born naked But I'm glory bound And a dead end street Is just a place to turn around
(Chorus)
When the sky is the limit Up on easy street Rock bottom Ain't no place to be Rock bottom Ain't no place for me
When the law of the jungle Is the law of the land Good luck Stayin' alive I keep a clinched fist under This hat in my hand 'Cause only the strong survive
Things are tough all over But I've got good news When you get down to nothin' You've got nothin' to lose Anyway, rock bottom Is good solid ground And a dead end street Is just a place to turn around
When the sky is the limit Up on easy street Rock bottom Ain't no place to be Rock bottom Ain't no place for me
