/*************** FROM THE BOTTLE TO THE BOTTOM ****************/ written and performed by Kris Kristofferson. Verse 1: You ask me if i'm happy now That's good as any joke i've heard It seems since i've seen you last I've done forgotten the meening of the words If happiness is empty rooms And drinkin' in the afternoon Well i suppose i'm happy as a clown But if it's got a thing to do With smilin' of forgettin' you Well i don't guess that i could say i am Chorus: Did you ever see a darling out a waken up alone Without a blanket on to keep him from the dew When the water from the weeds that sop the paper He's been puttin' in his shoes to keep the ground from comin' through And his future feels as empty as the pocket 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 fallen From the bottle to the bottom stew by stew Learnin' hard to live with losin' you Verse 2: You wonder if i'm better off With freedom now to do the things i choose With all my times my own and I got nothin' left but sleepin' time to lose There's no one here to carry on If i stay out the whole night lone Give a thinker's damn if i don't call I'm livin' like i wanted you And doin' things i wanna do And nothin' means a things to me at all Chorus.
