Lyrics
Uptown Downtown (Misery's All the Same)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(Ron Peterson, Harlan Howard)
I said I'm through with honky tonks
They only bring me down
I dressed my best and headed for
The brightest spot in town
I've watched the rich folks come and go and one thing's very clear
There's just as many lonely people here
Chorus
I'm just hangin' 'round a better class of losers
It don't matter if you drink bear or champagne
I've only found a better class of losers
Uptown, downtown misry's all the same
It's been all downhill for me
since baby walked away
I'm down here at the bottom
And I guess that's where I'll stay
I'm looking for the answers
But all that I've seen here
Is the same old lonely phony atmosphere
Repeat Chorus
For the blues are still the blues
Still just as hard to lose
Uptown, downtown...misery's all the same
