From The Bottle To The Bottom - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]
Written by:K. Kristofferson[00:00:01]
You ask me if I'm happy now[00:00:04]
That's good as any joke I've heard[00:00:06]
It seems that since I've seen you last[00:00:13]
I done forgot the meaning of the word[00:00:16]
If happiness is empty rooms[00:00:23]
And drinkin' in the afternoon[00:00:25]
Well I suppose I'm happy as a clam[00:00:27]
But if it's got a thing to do[00:00:35]
With smilin' or forgettin' you[00:00:37]
Well I don't guess that I could say I am[00:00:38]
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone[00:00:41]
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew[00:00:46]
When the water from the weeds has soaked the paper[00:00:51]
He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through[00:00:55]
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants[00:00:59]
Because he's never seen a single dream come true[00:01:05]
That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling[00:01:10]
From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool[00:01:14]
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you[00:01:20]
You wonder if I'm better off[00:01:29]
With freedom now to do the things I choose[00:01:31]
With all my times my own and[00:01:35]
I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose[00:01:40]
There's no one here to carry on[00:01:47]
If I stay out the whole night long[00:01:49]
Or give a tinker's damn if I don't call[00:01:52]
I'm livin' like I wanted to[00:01:56]
And doin' things I wanna do[00:01:58]
And nothin' means a thing to me at all[00:02:01]
Did you ever see a down and outer waking up alone[00:02:08]
Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew[00:02:11]
When the water from the weeds soaked the paper[00:02:15]
He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through[00:02:18]
And his future feels as empty as the pocket in his pants[00:02:23]
Because he's never seen a single dream come true[00:02:28]
That's the way that I've been feelin' since the day I started falling[00:02:34]
From the bottle to the bottom stool by stool[00:02:38]
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you[00:02:41]
