Lyrics for Song: From The Bottle To The Bottom
Lyrics for Album: The Essential Kris Kristofferson [Legacy Recording [2004]
(Kris Kristofferson)
You ask me if I'm happy now
That's good as any joke I've heard.
It seems since I seen you last
I done forgot the meaning of the word.
If happiness is empty rooms
And drinking in the afternoon
Well I suppose I'm happy as a clown.
But if it's got a thing to do
With smilin' or forgettin' you
Well I don't guess that I could say I am.
Did you ever see a down and outer
Wakin up alone without a
blanket on to keep him from the dew?
When the water from the weeds a
Soak the paper he's been puttin'
In his shoes to keep the ground from comin' though.
And his future feels as empty as
The pockets in his pants because
He's never seen a single dream come true.
That's the way that I've been feelin'
Since the day I started fallin'
From the bottle to the bottom stew by stew,
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you.
You wonder if I'm better off with
Freedom now to do the things I choose.
Well all my time's my own and I
Got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose.
There's no-one here to care at all
If I stay out the whole night long,
Or give a tinker's damn if I don't call.
I'm livin' like I wanted do and
Doin' things I wanna do
And nothing means a thing to me at all.
Did you ever see a down and outer
Wakin up alone without a
blanket on to keep him from the dew?
When the water from the weeds a
Soak the paper he's been puttin
In his shoes to keep the ground from comin' though.
And his future feels as empty as
The pockets in his pants because
He's never seen a single dream come true.
That's the way that I've been feelin'
Since the day I started fallin'
From the bottle to the bottom stew by stew,
Learnin' hard to live with losin' you.
